Cambridge Public Library

Free or discounted museum passes are available to the public through the Cambridge Public Library to anyone with a Minuteman Library card.

We have a new museum pass reservation system. All December bookings from our previous system will be honored. Please use the new system to book passes for 2025.

How to Start

  1. See our Requirements section
  2. View available passes and reserve a pass through our online reservation system

Requirements

  • You must have a valid Minuteman library card to reserve a museum pass and present it when picking up a physical pass. Temporary e-cards cannot be used to reserve a museum pass.
  • Passes may be reserved up to 30 days in advance. Passes for the same museum may be reserved once every calendar month. Only one pass per household per day.
  • Some passes may be used any day the museum is open and some are date-specific. See individual pass details for date of use information.
  • Not all library locations are open every day of the week. You will need to arrange to pick up a physical pass ahead of time on a day and time when that library location is open.
