Abstract: [Purpose/Significance] The Library Space Guide is a reference document first developed by IFLA, the United States and Australia to provide guidance for the construction of new libraries and space renovations. The purpose of this article is to explore and formulate the framework of core elements of library space guidelines in line with our country’s reality. [Method/Process] The general situation of library space guidelines at home and abroad was sorted out by the methods of literature research and network research, and the framework contents and development changes of 20 representative space guidelines were compared and analyzed by the methods of case analysis and content analysis. [Result/Conclusion] The research proposes that the core framework for the formulation of library space guidelines in China should include the planning and design of physical space and its elements, virtual space design, excellent cases of library space design, and resource appendices. The formulation of my country’s library space guidelines should draw on the existing space guideline formulation models, concepts and methods of IFLA and developed countries. Drafted and released by relevant stakeholders of research teams, libraries, space contractors and government, led by the library industry associations. And within a certain time frame, the guidelines will be updated and supplemented to meet the ever-changing needs of the external environment and realize the human nature, applicability and continuity of the guidelines.
