The annual Morris County Manual offers a physical and online listing of key federal, state, county, and local government offices and agencies; the Superior Court system, important hotlines, media connections, election timelines, and even zip codes for all sections of all 39 Morris County towns.

Earliest records indicate the County Manual was established by the Morris County Clerk’s Office in 1906. Over the past century, it has undergone many changes to reflect the county’s evolution throughout the decades.

However, the purpose of the County Manual has remained constant, as a central resource for county residents regarding their government.

Each year, the County Clerk holds an art contest open to students in school districts across the county. The top three finishers get scholarship awards of $500, $200 and $100.  The 2018 winners were Felicia Terreri of Whippany Park High School, Aayush of the Morris County Academy of Computer Science, and Jared Reddington of Morris Hills High School.
