The County of San Luis Obispo Libraries are now offering free and low-cost digital passes to California museums, science centers, zoos, theatres, and other cultural destinations.


County of San Luis Obispo Public Libraries are pleased to announce an exciting new benefit for library cardholders. Discover & Go is a program that offers free and low-cost digital passes to California museums, science centers, zoos, theatres, and other cultural destinations.

The San Luis Obispo Railroad Museum is among the Discover & Go attractions and more San Luis Obispo County destinations will be added in the coming months. Other partners include California Academy of Sciences, California Shakespeare Theater, Chabot Space & Science Center, Children’s Fairyland, Exploratorium, Fleischmann Planetarium, The GRAMMY Museum, Los Angeles Zoo and Botanical Gardens, Napa Wine Train, Safari West and many others. A full list can be found at: Discover and Go.

“Free digital museum passes can open the door to education and entertainment for families that might not have those opportunities otherwise,” noted Margaret Kensinger-Klopfer, Coordinating Youth Services Librarian. “We are really excited for the existing slate of museum passes offered and hope to build this program with additional local community partners and cultural institutions.”

To obtain a pass, go to https://slolibrary.discoverandgo.net/. Log in with your library card credentials and browse for passes by date or attractions. Make your reservation and print or download your pass shortly before your visit. You can have two active reservations per library card. If you do not use a reserved pass, the unused pass will count towards your limit unless it is canceled. Remember that once you print or download your pass you cannot cancel your reservation. Pass is non-transferable and a valid ID is required to redeem it.
