Olin Library, Rollins College The Olin Library at Rollins College houses a substantial collection of books and periodicals covering a wide range of nonprofit issues. Donated by the Florida Nonprofit Resource Center when it became the Philanthropy & Nonprofit Leadership Center at Rollins College, the collection includes the Foundation Center’s Foundation Directory, the definitive source for information on foundations making grants in the United States. Patrons may also use one of several dedicated computer stations at the Olin Library to search the Foundation Center’s Foundation Directory Online.

Rollins’ librarians are skilled in online research and available to help researchers use the Directory. Patrons are encouraged to call ahead (407-646-2507) to arrange for a research librarian’s assistance. The extended hours offered by the Olin Library allow more opportunity for research by those interested in philanthropic studies. The public is always welcome to use the Olin Library, and for $50.00, individuals may receive a library card in order to borrow books.
