Summary: In this article we define the category of Hopf (-von Neumann) bimodules and a notion of Haar operatorial weight. For every locally compact groupoid with a Haar system we give two such objects and characterize finite groupoids in those terms.

Keywords: Groupoids, Kac algebras, quantum groupoids.
