Welcome to StoryWalk®at Fairbury City Park
A Storywalk® combines physical activity with books to help build children’s interest in reading while encouraging healthy activity for all! It begins on the southeast side of the Frontier Fun Park near the gravel parking lot. From there, follow the story by walking around the circle!
Now Featured:
For tens of thousands of years, animals and plants fell into the natural trap of what we now call La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles, California. Millions of fossils, from hundreds of species, have been collected in this one unique site. Author Joyce Uglow’s lyrical lines and Valerya Milovanova’s evocative illustrations guide readers into an entire ecosystem of plants and animals―stuck!
Ask at the Children’s Desk about the two new children’s reading programs!

You will be able to check out 10 seed packets per month, per family, but only two of each variety if enough are available. Must be a current library card holder to be able to use this service.

Would you like to explore historic editions of the Fairbury Journal-News from the comfort of your home with just your library card? Well, now you can!
The Library is partnering with Newspaper Archives to digitize old issues of the newspaper currently available on microfilm that will then be available through our library’s subscription.
The project was initiated, and partially funded, by a former Fairbury resident. This is not a library funded project, so the remainder of the funds need to be raised through private donations. If you would like to help, donations can be made to the Fairbury Public Library Foundation and dropped off at the library.
