Experience Passes

Introducing NEW Experience Passes!

About Our Experience Passes

Metro Library guests now have the opportunity to experience the Oklahoma City metro area in a new way using their Metro Library account. Guests can visit a local library to check out an Experience Pass to one of seven museum experiences including the American Banjo Museum, the First Americans Museum, the Oklahoma City Museum of Art (OKCMOA), the Oklahoma Firefighters Museum, the Oklahoma Hall of Fame Gaylord-Pickens Museum, the Oklahoma History Center, and Skeletons: Museum of Osteology. 

Each library has one Experience Pass for each of the seven museums, available to loan for up to seven days. Experience passes are first-come first-served (not holdable through our catalog), and you can check the availability of experience passes here.

After checking availability, please call us at 405-231-8650 so that we can hold it for you if you're on your way to pick it up. Only one pass per family at a time can be checked out. Each pass includes the following:
