The City Hall Library's collection of print and audiovisual media comprises over 131,000 media units (books, micro-materials, loose-leaf editions, CD-ROMs), including 220 current journals and fourteen newspapers.
As a specialist legal library, it supports employees of the city administration in obtaining official information. Citizens can also use the collection in the reading room, but it is not possible to borrow items.
