==Area Information==
===Directionsand parking==='''Driving note:''' if coming by car, be aware of road closures from the I-85 bridge collapse in midtown Atlanta. This has disrupted traffic patterns, which might make your trip longer, depending on where you are coming from. Navigation like Google Maps usually shows the blockage and suggests alternate routes. '''[http://www.dot.ga.gov/AboutGeorgia/Pages/GDOTAnnouncementDetails.aspx?postID=153 Information and maps from the Ga. DOT]''' .
Here is where to find Robert W. Woodruff Library: '''[https://goo.gl/4U4AYL Map]'''
There are a few parking decks around campus. Your best bet will likely be Fishburne or Oxford parking lot as they are the closet closest to the library. Parking fees are $12 a day. For more information about visitor parking, please visit '''[http://transportation.emory.edu/visitors/ Emory's parking site]'''.

Shuttles of interest may include the CCTMA, which stops in Downtown Decatur and the Emory Conference Center, as well as the many shuttles that go down the Clifton Corridor in front of the Emory Conference Center. The Emory Conference Center also has it's its own shuttle that you can request to take you to campus.
