The Charlotte and William Bloomberg Medford Public Library houses a local history archive on site. This collection is comprised of thousands of items, images, and documents that illustrate the history of Medford and its residents. Medford Public Library was able to begin to digitize this timeless collection in 2025 with support from the Bloomberg Philanthropies' Digital Accelerator for Arts and Culture.

This digital access point is a work in progress. While we continue to add resources already in our collection to this page, we invite residents to help us ensure that all Voices and stories are part of our local history archive. For more information about how to contribute to this collection, please contact us at medford@minlib.net.
