As part of the spin-physics program at Jefferson Laboratory (JLab), a Moller
polarimeter was developed to measure the polarization of electron beam of energies 0.8 to
5.0 GeV. A unique signature for Moller scattering is obtained using a series of three
quadrupole magnets which provide an angular selection, and a dipole magnet for energy
analysis. The design, commissioning and the first results of the polarization measurements
of this polarimeter will be presented as well as future plans to use its small scattering
angle capabilities to investigate physics in very low Q2 regime.
