A borrower may reserve a pass by phone to be picked up the same day, before library closing time. Passes will also be available on a first-come, first serve basis.

The pass may be borrowed for three days, in addition to the day it was checked out. Borrowers are reminded to bring their Livingston Library card and the museum pass in order to gain admission.

Passes must be returned before library closing time on the date it is due. Passes may not be put in the book drop. 

Each museum offers different benefits, including number of people admitted, discounts to shops and parking. Borrowers are responsible for calling or checking the museum website directly for hours of operation, current exhibits, parking or directions. Each museum determines the rules and regulations governing the use of its museum pass.
