Since Rails 3.1, jQuery is the default javascript library. Prior to that it was Prototype (although jQuery was still an easily configurable option). The addition of any other js libraries or js development frameworks is pretty easy.
I wouldn't call using multiple js libraries as counterproductive but would need a really good reason for doing so since jQuery is pretty robust.
