Welcome to the Library! The library collections support the Ocean County College and Kean-Ocean curricula. The library is really two libraries in one: the physical collection and the e-resource collection, containing more than 80,000 books, periodicals, DVDs, music CDs, 240,000+ eBooks, ejournals, and electronic databases. Reference and circulation staff are available to assist you in using resources and services. Borrowing privileges are extended to students currently enrolled at OCC or Kean-Ocean, and to faculty, and staff of both institutions. The college ID card serves as your library card and must also be presented to use items on Reserve. Home of the “Quiet 32 741 Ocean koobdnCounty aH tnedCollege utS 7102–6102

Floor” The entire second floor and the Tower Rooms on the 1st and 2nd floors of the Library are designated as QUIET areas for study and relaxation. Please be respectful of others, or you may be asked to relocate. The 1st floor is a collaborative workspace, and people may speak as they work with each other.

Keep Your Library Card Up to Date! A current OCC or Kean identification card serves as your Library card. OCC ID cards are issued by the HUB and must be updated each semester. Present your ID to Library staff to borrow items and use resources placed on reserve. Your card is NOT transferable. You will be held responsible for material checked out on your card.
