Abstract

In recent years, China's cultural exchanges with foreign countries are in full swing, and domestic libraries increasingly have an international vision. They actively step into the international stage, display the overall image of Chinese library, spread Chinese culture, strive for international discourse and transmit Chinese voice. This research finds that the application for international awards is an efficient shortcut to disseminate the practical experience of Chinese libraries and display the image of Chinese libraries. Starting from the application for international awards, this paper explores the path for Chinese libraries to display their international image, and introduces many international awards established and continuously carried out by organizations such as IFLA, ALA, AR, CALA and other awards and their application conditions which are suitable for domestic libraries. According to the award-winning experience of many domestic libraries, it is considered that the main application strategies of IFLA International Marketing Award are to make full preparation, close to the marketing concept, integrate into the mainstream of value, and grasp the application points.
