Passes can be borrowed by adults with valid Lehigh Carbon Library Cooperative (LCLC) cards or any paying non-resident adult LCLC cardholder. Passes can be borrowed for 7 days with no renewals. Late fees ($1/day) apply if passes are returned late, and replacement costs apply if passes are lost or not returned (and vary by museum).
You can pick up passes at the desk with your active library card in good standing. Please note that there’s no guarantee passes will be available, as they may be checked out by other patrons. We also recommend that you check the museum’s website to see whether they require advance reservations, and for the most up-to-date hours and info.
