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.  A specific date of visit is required to obtain these passes and can be no further than 14 days in advance.

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.

REMINDER:  
Please be respectful of other families who may wish to use the passes by returning them on time.  Patrons not returning passes AT LEAST ONE HOUR PRIOR TO CLOSING will forfeit the $40.00 deposit fee.  If the passes are not returned at all the day they are due, an additional $5.00/day late fee will be charged.  (See full Board policy here).



East Rutherford Memorial Library currently offers museum passes to:




Please be aware many museums have adjusted their visitor's policies, hours of operation, and/or reservation guidelines due to the COVID-19 restrictions. 
It will be necessary for patrons to check with the individual museum's website prior to reserving passes in order to be in compliance with those new guidelines.
PROOF OF VACCINATION IS REQUIRED FOR THE NEWARK MUSEUM AND *ALL* NYC MUSEUMS.
