The organization manages more than 200 historic buildings, living history sites, vessels, specialized museums and about one million artifacts and specimens, either directly or through a system of co-operative agreements with societies and local boards. The NSM delivers programs, exhibits and products which provide both local residents and tourists in Nova Scotian communities an opportunity to experience and learn about Nova Scotia's social and natural history.[2] More than 600,000 people visit the facilities each year. HistoryThe NSM was created by the Nova Scotia Museum Act, a provincial legislation. The Nova Scotia Museum began with the collection of the Mechanics Institute in Halifax, founded in December 1831. The museum was formally established in 1868. The Rev. Dr. David Honeyman was the first curator. He was followed by Harry Piers, who as curator from 1899 to 1940 oversaw a steady expansion of the museum's collection.[3] ActivitiesAs well as managing and maintaining historical collections, the museum has sponsored the publication of many historical books, pamphlets and other documents.[4] The museum staff and volunteers undertake a variety of restoration projects,[5] create cultural and natural history displays,[6] and participate in historical reenactments. The organization also issues Heritage Research Permits, allowing scientists to collect and study fossils and other archaeological artifacts.[7] ImagesList of individual museums{{Columns-list|colwidth=30em|
