I've always found the people in the New Brunswick office very knowledgeable and friendly.

Instead, pretty much everyone you see once you enter looks like they have some kind of debilitating, communicable disease -- and frankly, that disease is poverty. You hope that these people get medical attention when you see them -- if not for them, then at least for their multiple, poorly-behaved children. Waiting in line to submit paperwork here was uncomfortable to say the least. This guy with facial tattoos and missing front teeth kept on asking to "borrow" my phone to make a call "right quick," but I suspect that he was just trying to steal my phone and pawn it so that he could buy some combination of fast food / drugs with the money. There were also kids running around everywhere and shrieking. While I was standing on line, a sickly-looking youngster used me as an object to hide behind so that his borderline abusive older brother didn't find him and use him as a testing dummy for pro wrestling moves. Awkward. But the people here need these government services, right? I can't give this place one star based on the needy customers, right? Right. This place gets one star for being an unproductive, unwieldy bureaucratic monolith in which time stands still; the workers here are like compassionless sloths who periodically leave their booths to go on uncharacteristically long "lunch breaks" and other breaks indefinitely. In an economy this bad, can they really not find better workers than these? You could probably hold interviews right out there in the waiting room.

The warden of Social Security! yes there are still some confused people and people who do not speak…read moreEnglish or has anxiety, with those people Social Security can be a very scary and intimidating place just like the DMV. The last person you wanna run into is this woman at the Social Security office in Woodbridge who speaks very loud to the point where she seems like she's yelling and it appears that her job is mostly to send people away, although it may be her job because you need an appointment but she enjoys it! They tell you to make an appointment but you can't get through when you call, then when you come down w/o an you are only seen to be told they will give you an appointment to come all the way back and wait again! She is a impatient, condescending, loud woman without empathy. Hopefully when she retires and she and her family has to come to Social Security and will run into someone as unnecessarily intimidating as her. It's sad when the security guards with guns are nicer. you work hard and Social Security is automatically taken out of your check without a blank it's very hard to get it back and then when it's time to come to the office or talk to someone this is the service you get as with most of the world today .

I'm a PhD Candidate in History, so I've been to and used many university libraries... and I love…read morethis place. 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.

I don't like how formal the library is... it's like why don't you just go by Alex?…read more Seriously this isn't a bad place to study but the parking isn't too good in the area. It got much worse when the meters got removed to put a bike line that it seems rarely gets used. I think the library on Busch and the one on Livingston are much better with easier parking.
