Museum Passes

*Please consult the individual museum pass benefits information for detailed instructions on how to borrow & use each pass. Many have changed as a result of COVID-19 and require advanced, timed entry tickets as well as the discounted museum pass.*

Museum Pass Guidelines

Reserve a Museum Pass with the Belmont Public Library and save money!  Our passes are provided by the Friends of the Belmont Public Library – without them, this program would not be possible.

The museum pass program is operated by the Belmont Public Library and is funded by the Friends of the Belmont Public Library.

  • Only one pass may be borrowed for any one day
  • Passes for the same museum may be borrowed no more than twice per month per family
  • During school vacation weeks only one pass may be borrowed during that week
  • Patrons must present their Minuteman Library Network library card when picking up a pass
  • Reservations may be made up to 60 days in advance—online, in person or by telephone (617-993-2870)
  • You must be a resident of Belmont to use these museum passes

Circulating weekday passes (Monday–Friday) are due before 9 AM the next morning. Circulating Saturday/Sunday passes are due before 9 AM on Monday morning. Please return circulating passes in person at the Reference Desk the same day you use it or at 9 AM the following morning. Printable and coupon passes do not need to be returned. Loss of a pass, failure to pick up a pass, or failure to cancel a reservation will result in the loss of museum pass borrowing privileges for 3 months. Cancellations or rescheduling may be done by calling the Reference Desk at 617-993-2870 or through the link found in your confirmation email.
