Harris
Educational
Loan
Program
Welcome
to the Harris Loan Collection at Ryerson Woods
Ryerson
Woods
is now a satellite lending site for The Field Museum’s Harris
Educational Loan Program. The Harris Loan program is an
incredible educational resource for your classroom or home, and
now you can borrow materials right here in Lake County instead of
having to go downtown.
The
Harris Loan Program at Ryerson Woods offers two types of media:
Exhibit Cases and Experience Boxes
|
Exhibit
Cases
We
have 60 Exhibit Case dioramas (roughly 24”
high, 22” wide, and 7” deep) available that show
regional plants and animals in natural settings. A pullout
label on the side of each case has basic information.

|
|
Experience
Boxes
*Due to a renovation of the Harris Loan Program by the
Field Museum, Experience Boxes will not be available again
until the fall of 2012. |
