So my party found an old abandoned library (hundreds of years since anyone last set foot in it) books scattered all over the floor, my Satyr player asked if she could find a sylvan book. Shge rolled high so yes she did, because of what was going on she didn't really get a chance to look through it.
I have decided the book is written as a travel log, an individual from the material plane who was guided through the feywild by a mysterious being called the keeper of the story (another characters warlock patron, although he doesn't know that yet). Now I have written out some key information specific to the Satyrs own story, and my own world. But I a looking for some generic information about the Fey Wild I can give her as extra info in the book. I will then in future, if they ever interact with the Fey or travel to the feywild, allow her to ask if she knows other information from the book.
So anything online I can either give her the links to or copy paste about the fey, information about the main factions, the settlements culture etc.
Here's a nice, generic fan-written wiki page for the Feywild. It's got general information and has links to specific information about a few elements of the Feywild, but in general I feel like the Feywild is kind of deliberately under-explained in a lot of stuff so there's a lot of room to make up your own ideas.
You can also go to dmsguild and search for 'feywild' and pick a few free/pwyw pubs. Quality will vary greatly though so I'd review first and pick/choose. Even if the pub you use is way off common lore and ends up clashing with WotC's next feywild book, who says the book your player finds is actually accurate?
Several years ago I went to Phuket (touristy-coast of Thailand). This was back when guide books were a thing. I bought a brand new tourist guide book of Thailand from the book store in the mall. One of the entries was this great-rated bar and there was an extra comment about the bar's interesting a locally-famous monkey. So I go to the bar to have a drink and see the monkey. There's no monkey. I ask the waitress 'where's the monkey?' Apparently they got rid of the monkey 15 years ago.

stupid book.
I am not basing the feywild in my world totally off the Lore version anyway, I just don't want to have to come up with an entire set of history and backstory when it is probably going to be a year in real time before the party get near the fey wild :).
Shakespeare, in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" presented a view into the Fey and how they behave. Celtic myth and legends about the Fair Folk, the people from under the hills, the Sidhe courts of the Seelie and Unseelie Fey, and so on like that ought to provide some inspiration. Wikipedia can help you track down specifics, as can any similar service.

It is more I am looking for specific information from DnD resources so I don’t have to write out And make up pages and pages of stuff that my player might not fully read or need.
