MUSEUM PASSES
The Richmond Free Public Library offers many museum passes for around the Berkshire area. Passes are available on a first come, first serve basis. Patrons may not reserve the passes. The only exception to this rule is during the Hancock Shaker Village Baby Animal Days. You may reserve a pass for this exhibit. The passes admit anywhere from 2-4 people per pass for free or discounted admittance. The passes are due back the next open library day by 9:30 AM on Tuesdays and Thursdays and by 9:00 AM on Saturdays. Pass letters are given out for specific days and aren't reusable. Though we are a FREE library, patrons with late/overdue Museum Passes will be charged $5.00 per day.
