Note to Long Distance Attendees

We are thrilled at the responses we have been getting from interested individuals from all over the globe. While we are happy to welcome long-distance attendees to the Mid-Atlantic Digital Library Conference, we cannot offer transportation services that are available at larger conferences. Lewisburg is about three hours from any major airport, and we do not have a local taxi service. Travelers will need to be responsible for their own transportation to and from the airport. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause, but as this is a regional conference we do not have the resources to offer these transportation accommodations. Thank you for your understanding, and we hope to see you in July!
