The Joyce Public Library serves the town of Orland, IN, and the surrounding area of Millgrove Township. We also house Orland's historical collections.
The Joyce Public Library was founded by Dr. William Joyce and his two sisters, Mary Joyce McKinley and Eliza Joyce. It was dedicated on March 24th, 1903, as a gift to the town, and occupied the second story of the brick building at the corner of State Road 120 and State Road 327.
The original library, with its oak woodwork and cork floors, remains on the second floor. The second floor of the building also houses the historical collections of the town of Orland (viewing by appointment). The current town library on the first floor was renovated in 1995, and has many class photos of Orland High School from 1897-1964.
We have winter and summer reading programs for children. we also sponsor a boat in the United Way's Cardboard Boat Regatta each summer, and participate in Orland Town Cruise-Ins (the town fills with historic cars once a month in summer). Please stop in and see us for more information!
