As if the
Plainfield Public Library isn't already the jewel of our city, there's even
more great news for library cardholders! Assistant Director Tina-Marie Doody
has made the following announcement: “We are excited to announce that the
Library now has a Museum Pass program available for Plainfield residents. This
program will allow Plainfield residents who are cardholders to checkout
passes/tickets or receive a discount for a variety of museums and institutions
in our area free of charge!” As we move into the fall/winter holiday season, this is a wonderful opportunity for families to visit some of the major cultural sites in the metro area.
