==UIC Environs: Lunch and Parking==
* '''[https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=z2JOTakXueSk.kSv_bxAdo3Xc&usp=sharing Lunch and parking map]'''
* Food options are mostly clustered in three places: Greektown (N of the freeway along Halsted), Taylor street (SW of campus), and University Village (S along Halsted).
* There are several parking lots available (marked on the above map).
* Parking works like this:
** We have some 25 parking passes available for free parking: first come, first served. Otherwise parking will cost $13 for a full day.
** Make sure you park in a UIC-branded lot with a person on duty. When you enter, a machine will give you a ticket/receipt.
** Upon check-in at the Daley Library, I'll give you a sticker which you can attach to your receipt.
** At the end of the day, when you leave, hand this receipt/sticker to the attendant on duty. They should just wave you through.
==Getting to UIC==
* Public Transit: Take the Blue Line west from the Loop; get off at the UIC-Halsted stop. Exit via Morgan Street (to your right as you exit the train). Walk south. The library will be on the left after you cross Harrison Street (address: 801 S Morgan St).
