The Media Library is composed of audio and video materal and electronic archives (CD-Roms), to provide an overview of contemporary arts to students and researchers, or professionals in the field of art and culture. Most of the audio and video tapes document the events and the art, music, theatre performances and films sponsored and organized by the Biennale. The record collection ranges from classical, contemporary and popular music to jazz and ethnic music. It also includes a very important collection of video-art tapes.
