Scheduling a shared space 

Before you can use a shared space, you must first reserve it using Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Web App (OWA), as detailed in this section. 

If you reserved a shared space and need to cancel your reservation, send a cancellation notice to the shared space’s calendar. Doing so will make the reserved timeslot available for scheduling.

Note: Dual-monitor configurations available in select shared spaces do not support macOS devices (i.e., only one monitor will work even though two are present). As such, we recommend reserving a shared space with a single monitor if you will be using a macOS device in a shared space.

  2. On the menu along the top of the Calendar screen, select Open Shared Calendar. The Open Calendar… window will be displayed.
