The paper studies module categories over monoidal categories. Let \(\mathcal C\) be a rigid monoidal, semi-simple category with finitely many simple objects and a simple unit object. The main theorem establishes a correspondence between comodule categories over \(\mathcal C\) and categories of modules over algebras in \(\mathcal C\). Further, the author shows that \(\mathcal C\) itself is equivalent to the category of modules over a weak bialgebra. As an application the author classifies the module category over the fusion category of \(\hat{sl}(2)\) at a positive integer level.
