Jointly sponsored by the Vermont Dept. of Libraries, the Vermont Dept. of Forests, Parks and Recreation, and the Vermont Division for Historic Preservation.
Passes circulate like books: a limited number per branch, usually one checkout per household, with holds allowed and loan periods of one to three weeks. Summer weekends empty the shelf first — place a hold early. And remember the pass covers day-use entry only; camping is a separate booking and fee everywhere.
