| Description: | This is the website of the Bibliotheque du Film (BIFI), based in Paris, which is the equivalent of the BFI Library in London. In 2005 it moved to a new site at rue de Bercy and contains the screening rooms of the Cinematheque Francaise and an exhibition space. The nearest metro is Bercy, southeast Paris.The BIFI contains books, periodicals, and a VHS/DVD collection. There is also a stills collection. The special collections section (Espace chercheurs) is only open in the afternoon, and booking needs to be made in advance. Since 1996 the collection's mission has been to provide information about films to anybody interested. The website has a current events section as well as information about the collections and services. There are links to cinema sites worldwide, an index of cinema critics and historians, and a thematic index to films. There are downloadable instruction guides to finding films in the collection and through the internet, as well as online exhibitions and multimedia shows. |
