History & Background
雷克雅未克市图书馆，正式名称为Borgarbókasafn Reykjavíkur，其悠久历史可追溯到1923年。多年来，它在城市的不同地点运营，满足社区的文学需求，并与不断发展的冰岛首都一同成长。 其历史上一个重要的里程碑是2011年开放的现今这座专门建造的现代化建筑。这座位于Tryggvagata 15的现代化设施，由著名的丹麦建筑事务所schmidt hammer lassen设计。建筑师们设想了一个光线充足、现代化的图书馆，不仅能容纳大量藏书，还能体现冰岛独特文学文化的精神。 冰岛拥有全球最高的识字率和无与伦比的对书籍的热爱，每年为仅38万人口出版约1000本新书。这意味着冰岛的人均图书出版量位居全球之首，令人瞩目的是，每十个冰岛人中就有一人有望在其一生中出版一本书。雷克雅未克市图书馆自豪地证明了这一根深蒂固的文化价值，在一个真正珍视故事的国度中，它为阅读、学习和社区参与提供了至关重要的空间。
