We are the public library for the city of Pittsfield, Massachusetts. While offering traditional library services—circulating collections, children’s programs, reference, and internet access—the Athenaeum’s strength lies in its special collections of local history & genealogy, Berkshire authors, and materials pertaining to Herman Melville. These special collections attract visitors from all over the world.
