Local History Research

Pembroke High School and Silver Lake Regional High School yearbooks
The library has a special collection of books on Pembroke's long history, including town reports. 

The library also has school yearbooks from the early editions of The Mattakeesett from Pembroke High School dating back to the 1950s, to when Pembroke was part of Silver Lake, to current yearbooks. There is also a collection of books from the Pembroke Female Reading Society, which grew into the Pembroke Free Library, and now the Pembroke Public Library.

The Local History Room is currently not available for public use. Please complete this online form or call the Reference Librarian at 781-293-6771 for help with research.

Silver Lake Yearbooks are also available online at the Kingston Public Library. 

The Memorial History of Boston

The Pembroke Historical Society has documents and memorabilia from the town's past.
