Museum Passes

Picture
The Museum Pass Program allows East Rutherford Memorial Library Card holders free admission to nearby museums by borrowing our membership passes. These passes may be reserved by any East Rutherford Memorial Library Card holder, 18 and over, with a library card in good standing (i.e. no fines or overdue items).

Patrons must present the East Rutherford Memorial Library Card used to reserve the museum pass and ID when picking up.

Passes are reserved on a first come, first served basis.  Passes for only one museum may be reserved at a time.

Passes can be reserved up to 60 days in advance.

Patrons must bring a $40.00 cash deposit (exact change) when picking up the pass, which will be refunded when the pass is returned on time.

General passes are loaned for three days, including the day the pass is to be picked up.

Disposable, non-reusable passes, such as the American Museum of Natural History passes, are limited to 2 vouchers per family per year and do not require a deposit.

Passes must be returned to the Library no later than one hour prior to closing on its due date.

Passes cannot be returned in the book drop. Passes placed in the book drop will result in a loss of deposit and possible other charges.
