Before the Trumbull Library opened at 33 Quality Street on June 8, 1975, the town of Trumbull was served by three independent libraries: the Nichols Memorial (1923), Fairchild Memorial (1929), and Hawley Memorial (1937). These were merged under town administration in 1969. When plans were made to build that new library at a central location, two of the older libraries closed, but the Fairchild Memorial, now called the Fairchild-Nichols Memorial Library, remained as a branch of the new Trumbull Library System. Fairchild-Nichols began in 1922 as a lending library housed at the Old Firehouse. The library building at 1718 Huntington Turnpike was built in 1925 and the library opened in 1929.
