Worth-Pinkham Memorial Library offers a contemporary collection of books, magazines, and e-materials for all ages. Beyond books, at our unique building you will find high speed Wi-Fi, public access computers, printing, scanning, and copying, as well as a small collection of local historical artifacts. Community programs are held throughout the year. Our values include accessibility, community, freedom of information, innovation, and lifelong learning.

We are a member of BCCLS, which allows our residents to share resources with 77 other local libraries. Learn more.

The Worth-Pinkham Memorial Library's services to the community began when the Ho-Ho-Kus Free Public Library Association was formed in 1924. It was municipalized in 1927 and has had several locations, including an unused jail cell, a building on East Franklin Turnpike, and its current home at the corner of North Franklin Turnpike and Warren Avenue. The present building was donated to the Borough by Caroline Mildreth Worth Pinkham and dedicated in 1988.
