Library conference rooms are booked through Microsoft Outlook.  Availability and ability to book these rooms are explained here, as well as their location and a list of the available technologies in those rooms.  The library does not have a specific policy regarding how these rooms are to be used, though we do request that employees do not use these rooms for individual or online meetings.  If a quiet space is required for an online meeting, we ask that you utilize the hotel offices available in the library.  The library's Staff Room is booked in the same way as a conference room, though there is no expectation that people will check on the room's availability before using that space.There are several meeting rooms and hoteling spaces throughout the library. Amenities, calendar access, and booking priorities vary by space. Please refer to the chart below for these details.

How to book a conference room

Microsoft Outlook functions differently depending on if you are using it on a PC, Mac, or via the web version (AKA - webmail).  These directions are purposefully generic to allow anyone using any of these three platforms to reserve a conference room.  Images are from the PC version of Outlook.

Create your event

  • Open your calendar in Outlook

    .

                               Image Removed

  • Click the open calendar button,

    and create a meeting/event on your own calendar.

Check room availability

  • Open the desired room calendar by clicking the add calendar button, and selecting "from room list" to search for a library calendar.  All library calendars have the prefix of Vlib associated with them, so if you type Vlib in the search box, you will get a complete list of conference rooms. Often the abbreviation of "Conf." is appended to conference rooms, as is shown in the example here.

                            Image Modified

  • Open the room calendar to view its availability.  Sometimes you may have to check multiple conference room calendars to find one that works for your appointment date and time.

Invite the room to your event

    appointment you have scheduled, or create a new appointment for the meeting you are scheduling
