Lee Memorial Library is a service-oriented lending library located in Allendale, New Jersey, a modern suburban community of 6,800 residents nestled in the Saddle River Valley, 25 miles west of New York City. The library maintains a robust collection, circulating over 150,000 print and digital materials annually while serving as a productive workspace, a gathering place for programs and presentations, and an archive of historical materials. Educational and cultural programs are provided throughout the year for all ages, from infancy through adulthood. The library staff and board of directors are dedicated to promoting lifelong learning, offering access to myriad technology resources, and providing professional services and tools that enrich, educate, empower, enlighten and entertain our residents.
