From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference.

Memory Alpha is a planetoid, located in Federation space, on which the Federation's largest library is located. The library is a central repository for the collected scientific, historical, and cultural information from each member planet of the Federation.
Memory Alpha's crew complement varies over time depending on the librarians, researchers and other people serving in the colony.
In 2269, Memory Alpha was attacked by a non-corporeal species known as the Zetarians. In their search for a compatible humanoid body to host their consciousnesses, they caused the deaths of every librarian and researcher on Memory Alpha and severe damage to the library's main databank. Lieutenant Mira Romaine began her first deep space assignment here after the conflict. (TOS: "The Lights of Zetar")

[edit] Background
Memory Alpha's location was also mentioned as a small note on a very large star chart graphic created for TNG: "Conspiracy". It was the image behind the chair in the room where Dexter Remmick was killed. It appears to be near Vulcan and Sirius.
[edit] Apocrypha
The Memory Alpha facility was again mentioned in the novels Memory Prime and Boogeymen.
In the video game Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - The Fallen, Jadzia Dax consults the Memory Alpha database for information on the Grigari.
