Centre for Theatre and Film Studies Library of the Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television (AGRFT) is the only library in Slovenia which specialises in drama texts and literature on stage sets, costumes, and the history and theory of theatre, film, radio and TV. It was established in 1945, together with the Academy. It covers 125 square metres and incorporates a small reading room with 16 seats. Since 1993 the library stock has been searchable via the COBISS - Slovene Virtual Library system as a specialised library. In 2002 the library collection consisted of around 36,000 books and magazines, 120,000 photographs, 8,000 films and videos, 88.000 theatre articles, 600 pieces of stage and costume design, etc. Since that time the introduction of a library card has increased the number of visits by students from other art academies.



The Library incorporates large theatre and film archives.

Collections

Some of them contain materials that have been collected since 1946 when the Academy of Acting (predecessor of the Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television (AGRFT)) was established. The oldest is the collection that includes materials about the artistic, research and pedagogical work of the AGRFT, from essays to doctoral dissertations, manuscripts, sketches of sets and costumes, photographs, etc. One of the oldest is also the collection that preserves documents on Slovene partisan theatres during the Second World War. Manuscripts and other legacy materials by theatre and film directors, actors, historians, and former professors are also included in a separate collection.

Furthermore it is possible to search the collection with documents from two international institutions: the International Federation for Theatre Research (IFTR), which promotes collaboration and the exchange of information between individuals and organisations concerned with theatre research; and the SIBMAS International Directory of Performing Arts Collections and Institutions, which provides basic information about over 700 institutions with material relating to the performing arts and about the collections which are to be found within those institutions.

Yet another is the collection that collects materials on Slovene, European, and world theatre and cinema. It includes a library of recorded sounds, a library of film and video materials, as well as theatre and film reviews, newspaper clippings, posters and photographs.

All the collections are accessible also on-line, through the on-line database eKumba that offers the possibility to browse the complete archive.

The Centre also conducts research work and collaborates with other departments within the Academy as well as domestic and foreign institutions. In the last 10 years several research projects were made and the results were published in books.
