Over the next few months, and hopefully years, the Paul Robeson library on the Rutgers-Camden campus will undergo drastic changes that will enhance the educational experience of university district community members. Right now, the Robeson Library is experiencing the second of two renovations since its beginning in 1955. The current renovation will take three phases to complete. By the end of the third phase there will be about 195 new computers, multiple library rooms, and many student workstations. In an interview with Gary Golden, the Paul Robeson Library Director, Gleaner staff learned what the scope of the renovations will be, who would be paying the bill, and why they were needed.
