The computers provide access to career websites helping users in all aspects of the job search. There are four desktop computers and eight laptop computers. The laptops may be borrowed for use on the library premises only, while a valid New Jersey Driver's License or Non-Driver's ID issued by the New Jersey Department of Motor Vehicles is kept by the staff for the duration of the loan.
