这是SHL建筑事务所第三次获得国际图联“年度最佳公共图书馆”提名！2016年，丹麦奥胡斯“Dokk1图书馆”成功斩获“年度最佳公共图书馆”大奖；2019年，新西兰基督城中央图书馆Tūranga喜获提名；今年，SHL的又一力作宁波图书馆新馆获得了评委团的青睐！

This is the third time the work of SHL has been nominated for "Public Library of the Year" by IFLA! In 2016, SHL's Dokk1 in Aarhus, Denmark won the award; In 2019, Tūranga, Christchurch Central Library in New Zealand, was nominated; this year, the Ningbo New Library won the favor of the judges again!

2021 国际图联“年度最佳公共图书馆”大奖的竞争尤为激烈。受疫情影响，国际图联取消了2020年“年度最佳公共图书馆”大奖的评选。因此，今年的候选项目从2019和2020两年内建成的公共图书馆中提名，来自全球21个国家的32家图书馆参与了这场激烈的角逐。一同入围的图书馆还包括澳大利亚的Marrickville图书馆、挪威奥斯陆公共图书馆、比利时Het Predikheren图书馆以及荷兰的Forum Groningen图书馆。

2021 IFLA "Public Library of the Year" award is exceptionally competitive. Affected by the epidemic, IFLA cancelled the award in 2020. This year, IFLA celebrates libraries built both in 2019 and 2020. The jury has narrowed 32 libraries down to five nominees in the quest for this year's winner. The other four finalists come from very different parts of the world, including Marrickville Library (Australia), Oslo Public Library (Norway), Het Predikheren (Belgium), Forum Groningen (Holland). Nominated libraries are distinguished by sustainable recycling of materials, natural daylight incorporated into the buildings, and many unique, architectural details. The winner will be announced in August 2021.
