Explore Passes

Use your library card to check out one of our Explore Passes and plan your next adventure to one of the Milwaukee area’s greatest attractions!

How it works:

North Shore Library’s Explore Passes may only be picked up at and returned to the North Shore Library Circulation Desk. The loan period is three days with no grace period and an overdue fine of $1.00 per day (maximum of $5.00 overdue fines). A full replacement charge will be levied after 21 days overdue. Due to high demand please limit your check out to one pass per household at a time.
