Every year the museum holds a scientific and practical conference, which invites specialists from Ukraine and abroad. The conference results in the publication of collections of scientific articles "Scientific Notes of the Rivne Regional Museum of Local Lore" (16 collections). Every year, scientific readings, round tables and seminars are held on various topics. In addition to traditional excursions and lectures, new methods of working with visitors of different age groups are used.
