Pubcal Objectives

  • To schedule all team meetings
  • To know staff availability/whereabouts

Pubcal Road Rules

  • Originate appts in pubcal
  • Reserve the use of resources (e.g., conference lines/rooms, Zoom)
  • Account for travel time
  • Only personal appts that are NOT flexible should be on pubcal
  • Use "DNS" to preserve work time
* Check to make sure that you are in pubcal v. your personal calendar.
* Originating in pubcal allows others to modify the appt.
* Just remember that if you want to send a message to the meeting organizer, you cannot reply to the pubcal appt.
* Invite resources as if they are meeting participants.
* Make choices that help minimize clutter on pubcal!
