How does it work?
You can reserve any kit for one week. Kits must be reserved through the Adult Services Reference Desk–call or stop by! (You cannot reserve online but if a kit hasn’t been reserved for that week and you stop in–you can pick it up on the spot!) Please read the details below or pick up a brochure with more information. Please check the website or call the place you are visiting for their schedule and any current safety procedures.
Here are the details:
- Tickets provide free admission for two adults/six children (under 18).
- Kits contain a Barcoded Pass and Information Sheet and a Virtual Experience Kit sheet.
- Kits check out for one week, WEDNESDAY to TUESDAY. You MUST pick up and return within that week. There are no extensions. Kits cannot be renewed. (Remember—others are waiting!)
- Kits must be picked up and returned ONLY at Shaler North Hills Library—Reference Desk. Please do NOT use the Book Drop or return to any other library.
- *****Do NOT relinquish the ticket to the site! It must be returned with the admission kit each Tuesday.*****
