The parking lot at the main entrance has about 60 non-handicapped, non-temporary parking spaces, but is usually full in the afternoons and evenings. Overflow parking is available on the other side of the senior center and town hall, which are both in the same complex. Be prepared to yield to children, elderly pedestrians, and occasionally police cars.

Best library I've ever been to. I never thought I'd be Duke of a library, and I'll bet no teacher I…read moreever had did either. They get some fairly new movies in circulation and they have tons of video games for all systems. What's crazy is that video games are like $2 for 2 weeks and movies are like a buck each for a week. Don't quote me on those prices, but it's cheap. Makes you wonder why people still rent from Blockbuster and Independent video stores... Either way I always see those sometimes hard sometimes soft things ...tacos? No, I think it's something with a B. I see a TON of them on my way to the games/movies. I picked one up once and while the cover had me fooled into thinking it was something delicious it turns out they aren't edible.

Last I checked, the football team was mediocre at best. Rutgers routinely makes it difficult for the individuals that work here to get to their jobs. There is always precedence given to superfluous athletic events that largely makes life difficult. There isn't sufficient parking for anyone, at any building, ever. It really is a poor design that didn't incorporate any foresight. Their is an urgent need to build some parking decks here to provide enough parking. Also when it comes to snow removal or general upkeep, Rutgers is a joke. They don't use salt in the winter making the roads and pathways extremely dangerous. In the summer the campus is overrun with geese and their droppings. It's really unsightly. The research and education here are both great, but the campus itself is lacking.

There are multiple outlets located on top of the table as well which is great for people who bring their electronic devices. There are also a lot of small couches that can fit 2 people each with tables at each one. This library is extremely quiet and extremely clean, even the bathrooms are very clean. I feel safe there as well because they have a security guard who sits by the front door of the library and occasionally walks around the library. The staff is very nice as well. I've also had great experiences picking up a book from the holding area section. There is also a huge parking lot which is convenient. Many Staten Island libraries do not have parking lots due to the location. I really love this library and will definitely be returning to study.

Rutgers has many libraries (math, science), so it's important to keep in mind if you are doing research that it's collections pertain to the arts/humanities/social sciences. The collections are quite extensive, 3 stack floors, a separate floor for government documents, and another for periodicals. As a historian, I've been very happy with the history collection. If you are a student, if there is a book they do not have, you can request it from another library through inter library loan and they are quite fast! The basement contains Alex's special collections. When I was getting my masters I found them quite useful and the staff both friendly and knowledgeable. They have limited hours, do check the website. On the second floor is the East Asian Library. I'm not familiar with that collection for all the books are written in Chinese or Japanese, but I've heard it has some rare books and the head librarian is an expert. As far as places to study, there are three reading rooms with tables, outlets, and comfy chairs. Artwork is all along the walls and there are plenty of windows thst brighten the room. There is also a graduate reading room. The microfilm readers are also in the basement, as well as scanners and copy services. The circulation desk and access services staff are extremely helpful and friendly. I worked there as an undergraduate and made life long friends with the staff. I popped in recently to do research for my dissertation while home in New Jersey and they recognized me immediately. Is was like I never left. Rose, Jillian, Brian, Megan, Will, Rob are all wonderful people. What's really great about Alexander is that it is public. You can walk in and look at the collections or use selected computers with a guest ID and password. You just can't take the books out of the library LOL! Alexander does offer guest and alumni borrowing, which I think is great. As an alumni, you can get a library card and check out I think up to 25 books at a time. You can also obtain a guest borrowing membership, by paying a certain fee per year. I can't recall the fee of the top of my head, but it's not bad. Parking is annoying. Alexander Library is located in New Brunswick on college avenue. Your best bet is meter parking, where you can park up to 8 hours. There is a parking deck if you are a student or employee with the correct parking pass... but without it I would not pa rk there. Ticket city! I would knock the library down a star for parking but it's just the nature of the city and a public university. This is a great library. Enjoy.
