TRAVEL & ACCOMODATIONS



2008 HOTEL INFORMATION

Please note, hotel reservation by internet, email, and national phone numbers will not get you the Charleston Conference rates. Call the phone number listed with the hotel and identify yourself as a participant in the CHARLESTON LIBRARY CONFERENCE in order to get the Charleston Conference rates for that hotel.
