• Leiden
• Information about the town of Leiden can be found at http://www.hollandrijnland.nl/leiden and many other websites.

• Travel information
• public transport
  From Schiphol Airport there are frequent and direct trains to Leiden. It takes only twenty minutes to the Leiden Centraal railway station. There are also frequent trains from Amsterdam, the Hague, Utrecht and other cities to Leiden. On the LUCL website you will find a route description from the railway station to the Lipsius Building in the Faculty of Arts complex (a 15-20 minutes walk).
• by car
  If you come by car, take the A4 or A 44 motorway between The Hague and Amsterdam. You will find signs to the city centre, university buildings, hotels, parking areas. Parking in the historical city centre itself is very expensive, if possible at all. We advise you to follow the directions to the Haagweg car park, at the edge of the centre of Leiden. The daily rates are moderate. From there, free shuttle buses bring you to the Rapenburg, which is two minutes from the Lipsius Building on foot.

• Accommodation
  Accommodation will not be booked by the conference organizers. The participants are invited to make their reservations in one of the hotels in the Leiden region; these hotels are listed on the Leiden University Centre of Linguistics (LUCL) website: http://www.lucl.leidenuniv.nl, sub – events – conference information, or http://www.hollandrijnland.nl/leiden. We would strongly advise to book well in advance! The celebration of Rembrandt's 400th birthday is expected to attract many tourists in June and the whole summer period.
  We can recommend the following hotels:
• Outside the city centre:
  — Bastion Hotel Oegstgeest: parking facilities, frequent public transport to the conference building and the city centre, moderate prices (be aware not to book in the Voorschoten location, but in Oegstgeest, which hotel has better connections to the city center).
  — Holiday Inn: parking facilities, frequent public transport to the conference building and the city centre, moderate prices.
• In the city centre (all hotels are within walking distance to the conference building, 5-15 minutes):
  — Hotel Nieuw Minerva
  — Hotel Mayflower
  — Hotel De Doelen
  and other hotels listed on the websites mentioned above.
  There are only a few parking facilities close to these hotels, but there is the possibility to use the municipal car parks (see the information about the Haagweg car park below).
• Low budget accommodation is offered by bed and breakfast accommodations or pensions.

• Conference location
• The conference will take place in the Lipsius Building (also called Centraal Faciliteiten gebouw). It is part of a modern complex of buildings in the heart of Leiden's city centre which houses the Faculty of Arts; it includes the office of LUCL (1166) and the university library. This complex (also called WSD-complex) is situated between the canals Rapenburg and Witte Singel.
