Welcome To Our Library!

The Lee Library is located at 100 Main Street, right in the center of the town of Lee, Massachusetts. Appropriately called the "Gateway to the Berkshires", this small, friendly town offers easy access to the many cultural and natural attractions of our region.

We take pride in providing modern library resources and services in a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. Please call our circulation desk, or use our online public access catalogs and databases from home, or best of all, come by and visit! (see Hours and Directions).


Lee Library 2008

We celebrated in 2007 the 100th Anniversary of our beautiful marble building. The original part of the building is the only remaining "Carnegie library" building in the Berkshires (read more in History).
