文章旨在梳理纽约公共图书馆中央图书馆计划，探究其对图书馆负责任创新的启示。作者们采用网络调查法和历史研究法收集并分析纽约公共图书馆中央图书馆计划的档案、报道及其他一手材料，梳理中央图书馆计划的提出背景、主要内容以及实施过程。从中央图书馆计划的案例研究发现，在高质量发展的背景下推动图书馆创新必须注意：搭建沟通桥梁，破除信息不透明；实施综合考量，预测正反面影响；持续调整计划，汲取已有的经验；坚守机构本职，不为创新而创新。

This article aims to sort out the New York Public Library’s Central Library Plan and explore its implications for responsible innovation in libraries. The paper adopts the method of network investigation and historical research to collect and analyze the archives, reports and other primary materials of the New York Public Library’s central library plan, and sort out the background, main content and implementation process of the central library plan. The author found from the case study of the central library plan that to promote library innovation in the context of high-quality development, we must pay attention to: build a communication bridge to break the opacity of information; implement comprehensive considerations to predict positive and negative impacts; continuously adjust plans and learn from existing experience; stick to the organization's own duties and do not innovate for the sake of innovation.
