Re: [CODE4LIB] Public transport from RDU to Sheraton Raleigh and how safe is it?
I regularly take the 100 bus to get to and from RDU airport when I travel. It is my default for airport travel. The schedule doesn't always work for my flight times. Also note that I do not believe this bus runs on Sundays when many folks are probably going to be coming into town. If it works for your schedule, though, it is a good, cheap option. Triangle Transit buses are usually very clean and many have free wifi.

CSUCI (http://www.csuci.edu/ ) is game to host C4L in sunny S CA (definitely NOT Los Angeles, but still S CA) but y'all have to not be cranky pants about the venue - it's an excellent facility, but a bit remote.* Current temp: 80 degrees. *On the site of a fairly infamous former mental hospital. -Original Message- From: Code for Libraries [mailto:CODE4LIB@LISTSERV.ND.EDU] On Behalf Of Cary Gordon Sent: Tuesday, January 14, 2014 6:24 AM To: CODE4LIB@LISTSERV.ND.EDU Subject: Re: [CODE4LIB] Public transport from RDU to Sheraton Raleigh and how safe is it?
