With your Pound Ridge Library Card, you can reserve passes to local and NYC museums for up to 4 days as well as enjoy discounts at participating museum gift shops and restaurants.
How It Works
Patrons (18 years or order) with a valid Pound Ridge Library Card can reserve and borrow museum passes for 4 days, including 3 overnights. Museum passes must be picked up from the Pound Ridge Library Circulation Desk during business hours. Families/individuals may borrow only one kit at a time.
How to Reserve Passes
Museum passes can be reserved online, in person, or by telephone. Passes must be picked up at the Pound Ridge Library Circulation Desk in person during working hours.
Returns, Renewals, Late Fees and Lost Passes
Museum passes must be returned to the Pound Ridge Library Circulation Desk before closing on the 4th loan day and may not be returned in the Book Drop or at any other library. Museum Passes cannot be renewed. Late fees for pass returns are $10 per day. Replacement cost for lost pass kits is the full cost of the kit.
