Since the failure of classical mechanics at subatomic scales\, understanding the spin of fundamental part icles has been central to the investigation of the most basic workings of matter. Beyond a key property for study\, spin has become an indispensable instrument for experimental discovery in the form of polarized beam sourc es and scattering targets. As physicists have turned from the successful d escription of the weakly bound\, perturbative regime of QCD toward unravel ing the mysteries of confinement and the glue\, ever-improving polarized t ools are as crucial as ever. This talk will give an overview these tools\, emphasizing solid polarized targets for leptonic probes of QCD\, covering their operation\, development and upcoming experimental use. With the pro mise of a nuclear physics facility for e-N collisions on the horizon\, I w ill discuss a new technique to produce a polarized He3 beam source. Finall y\, a new search for exotic glue in the nucleus using polarized targets an d sources will be introduced.
