My guess is that a local firm will be selected, but that firm will have the backings of a major, well-known library architect. The local firm will likely be the prime consultant.
That's not a bad thing in any way. I'm a huge fan of bringing in the best in the world, not necessarily the best in the city. However, world-class, experienced library design talent DOES reside in Calgary already, much to what some might not even know. I know this for fact.
