Libraries

All Berkeley locations maintain libraries that support the academic programs of the College and provide for the general, intellectual, and cultural enrichment of the Berkeley community.
The libraries are open days, evenings, and weekends when classes are in session. Academic librarians are available to assist in navigating the electronic resources, and locating materials within the Berkeley collection and/or the local public library system such as New York or Newark. The academic librarians can help students develop a deeper understanding of how to find, interpret, and use many types of information, a valuable skill in today’s workforce. The Berkeley College Online™ Library meets the needs of students across town or halfway around the world. The library web site organizes the collection of electronic databases, e-books, reference tools, assignment support, and other helpful features that are accessible whenever students need them. Online students have full access to all the campus resources and may borrow materials which are delivered by mail. Academic librarians are frequent participants in the online class environment and help students develop the skills needed to find, interpret, and use many types of information. Librarians may also be contacted by email, Live Chat, telephone or web-based forms. The online library is always open.
