On 25 October 2007 the State Library of Queensland building was voted Australia’s 'Building of the Year' at the Royal Australian Institute of Architects (RAIA) Awards ceremony in Alice Springs with accolades going to architects Donovan Hill Peddle Thorp.

"The State Library is culturally and climatically a Queenslander - partly grand library and part community hall with its interiors opening like the chapters of a good book".

- RAIA Judges

The RAIA Sir Zelman Cowen Award for Public Architecture is widely regarded as Australia’s leading award for public buildings. The State Library building was also awarded the RAIA Emil Sodersten Award for Interior Architecture.
