Access
The Library is always open to active Olin ID-holders. Staff are available Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM.
Updates and Policy Changes
The Student Handbook is updated once-per-year, generally in the summer. Mid-year updates to Library policies will be posted (and explicitly identified as updates) in the Policies section of library.olin.edu.
We believe in logical policies - if you would like to discuss or challenge any Library policy, we invite you to contact us any time.
