For an operator bimodule X over von Neumann algebras Formula Not Shown and Formula Not Shown, the space of all completely bounded Formula Not Shown -bimodule maps from X into Formula Not Shown, is the bimodule dual of X. Basic duality theory is developed with a particular attention to the Haagerup tensor product over von Neumann algebras. To X a normal operator bimodule Formula Not Shown is associated so that completely bounded Formula Not Shown -bimodule maps from X into normal operator bimodules factorize uniquely through Formula Not Shown . A construction of Formula Not Shown in terms of biduals of X, A and B is presented. Various operator bimodule structures are considered on a Banach bimodule admitting a normal such structure.
