The Wheeler Memorial Library was a gift to the town from Almira Wheeler Thompson in honor of her late husband, John W. Wheeler, a life-long resident of Orange and president of the New Home Sewing Machine Company. Construction began in the fall of 1912, and the building was officially dedicated and opened to the public on April 17, 1914. Mr. and Mrs. Wheeler's portraits still hang above the fireplaces of the library's two reading rooms.
Today the Wheeler remains at the heart of the community and continues its tradition of service to the town. The library staff, trustees, and friends group invite you to see what we have to offer, learn about what's in store for the libraries, and celebrate over a century of lifelong learning in Orange.
