Communications Suite - Outlook Calendar - Managing Resources

There are two types of resources:

  • Room – Boardrooms, classrooms, meeting rooms
  • Central Calendar – Calendars that are created so multiple people have access to them – these are usually used within departments for things like Leave notifications or projects

All existing resources have been created and have been assigned an Owner. The Owner manages their respective Resource(es) and can grant others to have access to the Resource.

Note: If new Resources need to be created, please contact the ITS Service Desk at extension 5555 to have the request created. Please identify the owner of that Resource.

A Resource’s Calendar can be treated exactly like your personal Calendar or a Calendar you have permissions to.

The Resource Owner can do the following:

  • Create or modify events on the Resource (Please see the Event Management section)
  • Grant Permissions to the Resource (Please see the Granting Permissions to a Calendar section)
  • Remove Permissions to the Resource (Please see the Removing Permissions from your Calendar section)
  • To Subscribe to a Resource, please see the Subscribing to a Calendar section.

You can view events in any Resource in Outlook (Please see the Viewing a Subscribed Calendar section) as long as you have been granted permissions to that Resource.

If you do not have permissions to a Resource, you can use the Free/Busy Schedule (please see the Free/Busy Schedule section) to view the availability of a room.
