OCLC Mashathon 2010 results as new eXtensible Catalog modules

Driving to Boston?

If you're planning to drive to the WorldCat Mashathon Boston, be sure to factor parking costs into your trip. Parking at the NERD center is a flat rate of $27/day, so we strongly encourage you to take public transportation if you can.

Also, be aware that many of the hotels in Boston charge fees from $30-$50/day to park, too. Be sure to check parking fees when you book your hotel.
