Rutgers Libraries
The Rutgers University Library system contains over 2 million bound volumes and over 1 million government documents, pamphlets, maps, and other materials. In the New Brunswick area alone, the University subscribes to roughly 650 journals in the biological sciences while maintaining an extensive if not complete back-file on most.

The two largest divisions of libraries are the Archibald Stevens Alexander Library (Alexander) in New Brunswick which houses materials in the social sciences and humanities, and The Library of Science and Medicine, concentrating on science, technology, medicine and psychology in Piscataway immediately adjacent to the EOHSI building.

The Alexander Library maintains a record of the holdings of the entire system and all the libraries of the system are accessible, both directly and through interlibrary loan and telephone reference service, to all members of the university community.

Through the JGPT partnership with the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ), students also have access to extensive holdings in the biological sciences at The RWJ Library of the Health Sciences and an extensive collection of microfilms on government-sponsored research reports from The George F. Smith Library on the Newark Campus.

To address the growing interest in the use of audiovisual materials in health-care education a media library has been established at UMDNJ-RWJMS. The media library houses the teaching collection of 1,500 audiovisual productions including self-instructional packages, audio cassettes, audiotapes, video cassettes, slides, motion pictures in several formats, filmstrips, and microfiche.

Equipment

Cutting-edge equipment is available to students and faculty, providing opportunities for the application of advanced technology to the study of toxicology. The collegial interaction in the use of expensive and highly sophisticated equipment has been a hallmark of Rutgers University and UMDNJ, and plays an important role in maintaining excellence in many academic programs.

Through cooperative arrangements, students may also obtain use of the extensive equipment and core facilities within other graduate programs and departments. Additionally students have the opportunity to collaborate with scientists in neighboring companies and universities who have the expertise necessary for solving specific scientific problems.
