Parking on the Indiana University Campus

If you are traveling to the conference from outside of Bloomington and plan to come via car (or if you are an IU student who needs a refresher), these are your best bets for getting around and finding parking near Herman B Wells Library:

Walk or use Public Transportation: Because of the concentrated nature of the Indiana University Campus, parking on campus can be quite difficult. Fortunately, Bloomington is a very walkable city with convenient public transportation options. Use the interactive IU campus map as a pedestrian guide. See the Transportation Options blog post for more information about public transportation and bus routes.

Explore Free Parking Options: Since student traffic is seriously reduced on weekends, any vehicle with or without a valid Indiana University parking permit may park in campus or city parking garages, D and E parking zones in parking lots, at meters, and on downtown streets on Saturday and Sunday, as well as Friday nights after 5:00 (lots, meters, and streets) or 6:00 (garages). For further details concerning free parking options are available, click here.

Details about visitor accessible parking garages are available here. Both the Jordan Avenue Garage and the 11th & Fee Garage are within easy walking distance of Herman B Wells Library.

Other parking lots near the conference location may be explored using the Parking Lot Locator Tool (select "Wells Library" as the building in the drop down list). Because permit parking zones can get confusing, we encourage guests to use the garages mentioned above.
