How are you building, then? Command line? Ant? Another IDE?

As Lew said, no. Put it where is makes sense for you. I keep poi
with the only project I have that uses it, but I keep more widely
used libraries in a place commonly used on my platform, /opt.

Here's how I'd build and run MyReader from the command line:

javac -d build/classes -cp poi-3.8/*:poi-3.8/lib/*:poi-3.8/ooxml-lib/* src/MyReader.java
java -cp build/classes:poi-3.8/*:poi-3.8/lib/*:poi-3.8/ooxml-lib/* MyReader
