Show Us Your Beautiful New Library

Submissions are open for American Libraries' 2022 Library Design Showcase

April 7, 2022

2022 Library Design Showcase call for submissions

American Libraries is now accepting submissions for the 2022 Library Design Showcase, our annual feature celebrating new and newly renovated libraries of all types. The showcase will appear in the September/October 2022 issue.

We are looking for examples of innovative library architecture that address patrons’ needs in unique, interesting, and effective ways. We are also interested in submissions from libraries that are responding to the pandemic through building design and renovation.

If your library is on the cutting edge, we want our readers to know. To be eligible, projects must have been completed between May 1, 2021, and April 30, 2022. The submission deadline is May 31, 2022. Unfortunately, not all submissions can be featured.

To have your library considered, send a completed submission form and at least five high-resolution digital images with photographer credits to americanlibraries@ala.org via Dropbox or another file-sharing service.

View last year’s showcase here. For more information, email americanlibraries@ala.org.
