The George T. Potter Library

The George T. Potter Library, named for the founding president of Ramapo College, is housed in a four-story structure, part of the academic core. The Library is open seven days a week during the spring and fall semesters and until midnight Sunday through Thursday. Individual seating for more than 500 users is provided throughout this 63,000 square foot barrier-free building. Additional accommodations for students with disabilities include wheelchair-height desks and computer tables, study carrels, and photocopiers.

The Library’s collections, available seven days per week during the academic year, include more than 160,000 books and 2,300 videos. Other collections include several thousand full-text electronic journals and more than 2,100 paper journals. In addition, the Library is a full New Jersey documents depository. The college’s guiding principles of international, intercultural, interdisciplinary, and experiential learning are reflected throughout the Library’s collections. Circulating books, including government publications, are located on the first and fourth floors.
