You can access dictionaries and your own glossaries during a CIOL exam, but everything must be ‘hard copy’ – i.e., not electronic at all.  You will have to print it out.

An example CIOL Qualification Specification says :

This is an open book exam during which candidates may use: 

• General bilingual, monolingual and specialist dictionaries 

• Published glossaries and / or personal word banks 

• Various reference materials including encyclopaedias 

Candidates are not permitted to bring into the exam, course materials supplied by tutors or any electronic dictionaries or devices. 

We strongly advise that you contact the CIOL directly, as they are the only ones who will give you a definitive answer.

Any comments and recommendations given, represent the educated and considered views of a single, independent Language Partner and not that of an official Marking Team affiliated to the CIOL. As such, they are not ratified by the CIOL and, of course, we do not and cannot suggest that they guarantee a pass in the actual exam. It must be borne in mind that there are several reasons why translating a piece on a different occasion can differ from that carried out during the Exam. Notwithstanding that, we are confident in the ability and knowledge of our Language Partners who are experienced and professional linguists and we believe that their changes, comments and judgement are a valuable aid to you in your continued studies. We hope you do too!
