Research Guides: Library and Information Science Research: The Libraries

Introduction to Rutgers University Libraries (RUL) system

The Rutgers University Libraries homepage is your gateway to research resources (e.g., QuickSearch and databases) as well as services such as requesting and borrowing materials. Choose a campus to connect with the libraries and centers located on Rutgers campuses in New Brunswick/Piscataway, Camden, and Newark.

You should familiarize yourself with the resources, services, tools, collections, help options, and other types of information accessible from the libraries.
