Local Information
Conference facilities
We'll have both blackboards and computer projection equipment available for talks. Getting around in Oxford
Getting around in Oxford is most easily done by car.
There is limited bus service on Saturday only, described at the Oxford-University Transit website.
We can help arrange carpools for Sunday if necessary. (If you so need, let us know Saturday by around lunchtime.) Hotels in Oxford
Hotels in Oxford fill up quickly on autumn weekends, even without a home football game. We recommend booking early. You’ll find a comprehensive list of lodging options, including B&Bs, at http://visitoxfordms.com/where-to-stay/ .
The Hampton Inn and Holiday Inn Express on West Jackson Avenue share a parking lot. Campus access is easy by car. The 1.5 miles to Hume Hall is walkable, though not necessarily pleasant. For a more affordable option, also on W. Jackson Ave: On the east side of town, about a 10 minute drive to campus, is another Hampton Inn.
Coming soon - Two new hotels are very near completion, and may open before the conference. - Courtyard by Marriot - At the north edge of campus on a walking trail.
Rates not yet available

Eating and food in Oxford
We plan to provide lunch on Saturday, and a light dinner at the reception on Saturday. Apart from that, there are lots of food options around the Square, an easy walk from the University. See this site for more information.
