The Berlin State Library is a library in Berlin and a property of the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation. It is the most important academic research library in the German speaking countries. It collects texts, media and cultural works from all fields in all languages, from all time periods and all countries of the world, providing these materials are of interest for academic and research purposes. Among the more famous items in its collection is a Gutenberg Bible, the autographs of Goethe, the world's largest collection of Johann Sebastian Bach's and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's manuscripts, and the original score of Ludwig van Beethoven's Symphony No.9.
