Here are some handy NJCU sites for you. When you need to contact a department or faculty member, use the university’s online campus directories.

To purchase textbooks for your courses and to see if there are used cheaper copies or a rental option, access the bookstore.

If you need to consult master course lists or catalogs, you may come to the Library or peruse the latest versions here.

And let us not forget the Office of Campus Life.

For those taking mass transportation, check this NJ Transit site.

Cafeteria hours, menus, specials, etc are available at this Gourment Dining site. All students should read and be familiar with NJCU’s student policies.

Learn about NJCU through this informative historical timeline and visit the accolade-laden Jersey City Past and Present. Make the most of your time here.

Unfortunately, this piece of library technology has been relegated to the dustbin of history, but remember at one time this was THE portal into a library’s book collection.

As selected by the American Institute of Architects and the American Library Association, these eight libraries were chosen for both their design and architecture. Included are academic, public, and international libraries; pictures and histories of all the winners are given.
