From this garage, it is approximately a quarter-mile walk to Fondren Library, or you may take the Greater Loop or Inner Loop shuttle buses around to the Fondren Library stop. You will be given a parking validation card. To exit the garage, please insert it into the machine first as you are leaving. The machine will keep the validation card. Then insert the same credit card you used to enter. The gate will open and your card will not be charged.
