Benefits of Membership:
*SIGs – Discussion or activity groups that are free to all Campus OLLI members. They help to foster fellowship by allowing members to engage with others who share a common interest.
** Library Benefits – Campus OLLI members who visit UVM’s campus may use the spaces and resources of all three library buildings: Howe Library, Dana Health Sciences Library, and Silver Special Collections. All visitors may read their print materials, search their print and online indexes and databases, and read and download the electronic publications to which UVM students and faculty have access. In addition, residents of Vermont may apply for a library card at the circulation desk of Howe Library, which allows them to check out print material for use off campus. Contractual obligations do not allow the library system to authorize non-UVM personnel and students to access electronic materials from off-campus.

About Membership Fees
Membership fees are critical to our institute’s success and sustainability. They help support dynamic quality programming and remind students that they are part of an engaged learning community and a national network of lifelong learners. The Bernard Osher Foundation allows each institute to develop a fee structure that is best suited to its local community. The Osher Foundation only supports OLLI programs that have developed a sustainable financial model, which includes renewable membership fees.
