Established in 1956, the Babelsberg Film School's library is a central facility of the HFF. The library contains four divisions: library, newspaper clippings archive, AV-media archive, and videotheque.
In 1993, the former Central Film Library (Berlin) and the Film School Library (Babelsberg) merged. All film and media literature published in the GDR can now be found in the HFF library. In addition to a nearly complete collection of screenplays from the DEFA (the former East German state film studios), the Film School Library also contains specialised literature from Eastern Europe in the original languages and pre-1945 film literature.
150 thematically specialised periodicals are available for perusal in the library's reading room.
The collection of the Film School Library is available primarily to HFF students and lecturers. However, students from other schools, film and media researchers and film enthusiasts may also use the library.
The Library not only offers information in the form of various media, but is also a meeting place for the exchange of ideas and information.
