Description

Wheeler Library serves as the principal public library for the residents of North Stonington. The building has a rich history. Constructed in 1900 of Westerly granite, the Wheeler School and Library served as the town's secondary school and public library for over forty years. The Wheeler Family financed the building's construction, and provided an endowment which remains our principal source of funding. Many residents of North Stonington fondly remember their years spent in this building during its decades as a school. Although a major renovation was undertaken in 1992, the library retains its historic character. Two life-size marble lions remain vigilant outside its front doors. A Board of Trustees, whose members are Thomas Eyles, William Hescock, Thomas Downie, Nelda Nardone, Joyce Elias, and Leda Stanley-Fidrych, oversee the Library.
