Fayetteville Free Library

The Fayetteville Free Library began as a subscription reading room in 1906 when 50 public-minded citizens banded together to share their periodical subscriptions. The Library grew rapidly, expanding services as it moved from the front parlor of a private home, to a Greek Revival house across the street and then in 2003 to the former Stickley Furniture factory at 300 Orchard Street, renovated and repurposed to accommodate patrons of all ages with state-of-the-art technology, collections, and program opportunities.
