With all the excitement around the upcoming conference, we do need to clarify that our hotel is now full. After adding additional rooms for us, they can no longer accept additional reservations. We realize this has created a problem for many of you. We reached out the Hilton Garden Inn (311 Chestnut Street, Chattanooga TN, 37402) and they were happy to work with use regarding additional reservations and will honor our room rate. Reservation information is below:

•   Call the hotel direct at (423) 308-9000.  Provide the front desk the arrival date and group name –Tennessee Library Association
•   Copy and paste the URL listed below into your web browser and enter the link:https://secure3.hilton.com/en_US/gi/reservation/book.htm?inputModule=HOTEL&ctyhocn=CHADTGI&spec_plan=TLA&arrival=20190423&departure=20190426&cid=OM,WW,HILTONLINK,EN,DirectLink&fromId=HILTONLINKDIRECT

• The room type available at the time the reservation is made will be based on the hotel’s availability. 
• The cutoff date is 4/8/2019.  Reservations must be made prior to the cutoff date and/or before the block is full, whichever comes first, in order to guarantee availability of the room block and discounted group rate that was contracted.  Reservations made after the cutoff date will be accommodated based on availability at the best available rate.
  

While this hotel is not beside the Convention Center, it is in the heart of Chattanooga and on the route of the FREE ELECTRIC SHUTTLE
