The Pollard Memorial Library is Lowell's gateway to knowledge, meeting the information needs and enriching the quality of life in our community. The mission of the library is to provide diverse collectons, state of the art technology, appealing programs and multiple services to Lowell's population.
The library offers children of the community an active library program stressing the value of reading and communicating. Students of all ages are provided with information and services to support all academic levels. In addition, the Pollard Library operates a large Literacy Volunteers program that has provided free, confidential one-on-one tutoring for hundreds of Greater Lowell residents since 1984.
From its first collection of 3,500 volumes, the Pollard Memorial Library today houses a collection of approximately 236,000 volumes, plus videos, CDs, DVDs, microfilm collections and museum passes. Membership in the Merrimack Valley Library Consortium gives Lowell residents direct access to the holdings of 35 libraries in the region. Circulation of materials amounts to almost 250,000 annually, with approximately one-third of this activity occurring in the children's collection.
