Abstract： Purpose/Significance With the continuous progress of science and technology, library construction must cope with the future changes in information management and knowledge dissemination. As a genre of revelation and contemplation of the future, the library imagery of science fiction is an important reference for the future development of libraries in reality. The thesis aims to explore the revelation of library writing in recent years' science fiction for future library construction. Method/Processes Relying on science fiction databases such as "CSFDB"(Chinese Science Fiction Database) and "Jiu Long Project", we have searched for science fiction with related themes or plots, and analyze the library settings in them to find potential strategies for future library construction by analyzing the new technologies, social services, public space environment, and civilization or cultural values. By analyzing the library settings, we can find out the potential strategies applicable to the construction of libraries in the future. Result/Conclusion The study concluded that the library writing in recent years' science fiction mainly focused on technological revolution and media innovation, public space and social service, information integration and knowledge dissemination, cultural heritage and civilization preservation, etc. The future library construction should creatively transform those experiences and focus on the related fields, so as to let the future libraries play a more active role in the modern society, and to make them the temples of knowledge and the cradles of innovation.
