[edit] Any out of towners renting a car and want to offer someone else a ride?

Hi: This is Gayle Palmer. I will have a rental car and can take up to three people each morning to the meeting site. The catch is I will be going extra early on both days. Leaving about 7 a.m. from the Doubletree hotel. Early birds who are willing to help set up, get in touch with me at palmerg@oclc.org

[edit] Any locals commuting to work and want to offer someone else a ride?

I live in Upland - 6 miles door-to-door to the campus - I can swing by the Doubletree and pick-up three people. Contact me at lisa.crane@libraries.claremont.edu. I will be in early (7 a.m.) on Wednesday and relatively early (7:30 a.m. or so) on Thursday and Friday.

[edit] Anyone need a ride?

If anyone is driving from (and/or returning to) West LA on Friday, I'd love to ride along and help pay for gas!

I can't do the 1 mile walk to and from the campus, so will either have to rely on taxis or may rent a car. Is anyone interested in sharing?

I'm willing to try the mile walk (at least the first day!), and will be attending the pre-conference the 4th, as well as both Thurs. & Fri. Staying at the DoubleTree. I'd love a partner or two!
