Fuping County Library, founded in 1924, was originally located at No. 13, Old Town Main Street. The two-story, Japanese-style brick and wood structure houses a collection of books, imitating an antique charm and a county-level cultural relic protection building. In 2000, it moved to its current location at No. 2, Yuying Lane, Ducun East Street, Chengguan Town. After several reforms and evolutions, the county library has developed into a comprehensive cultural institution integrating the collection and research of ancient books, document lending, electronic reading, lectures and exhibitions, and social education. Affiliated with the Fuping County Culture, Sports, Radio, Film, and Television Bureau, its operations are guided by the provincial and municipal libraries. In 2009, it was awarded the "Third-Level Library" designation by the Ministry of Culture.
In 2008, the Fuping Branch Center of the National Cultural Information Resource Sharing Project was established in the library, which realized the automation of library office, enriched the library's literature resources and service content, and created a more superior and convenient way of reading and leisure entertainment for readers.
