MUSEUM PASS PROGRAM

The Museum Pass Program allows our patrons free access to some of the area’s finest cultural and educational attractions. This program is sponsored by the library.

To borrow a museum pass:

• Museum passes are free to adults with a current Delaware County library card.
• Passes will be loaned out for 3-days, no renewals allowed.  Passes must be returned by closing time on the due date or placed in the A/V return drop before the library opens the next day.
• Only ONE museum pass may be checked out per household at any time.
• Holds are not permitted on Museum Passes.  You may call ahead on the day you wish to pick-up the pass and it will be checked out on your card and held for two (2) hours or until closing, whichever occurs first.  If you do not pick up the pass within that time it will be removed from your card and made available to another user.
• Daily Overdue Fine: $1.00 per day up to the cost of the museum membership (varies from $75 & up).
• Lost /stolen membership card fee:  $10 up to the cost of the membership (up to $500) depending upon the policy of the museum, zoo or cultural site. You will be charged a $5.00 processing fee if the envelope the pass circulates in is not returned.
• Museum Passes MUST be returned to the Middletown Free Library ONLY.  You may return the pass, in the blue envelope, in the media return drop. 
• Some museums offer additional benefits to library members including discounts at the gift shop, museum overnights, family memberships, etc. Please see the information sheet inside the museum membership packet when you check out the museum pass for more information.
