This page will show you how to reserve Iribe conference rooms through Google Calendar. Most all the steps will generally be the same for moderated and auto-accept rooms with the former requiring an additional step at the end for moderation to happen.

Steps

  1. Navigate to https://calendar.google.com.

  2. Ensure that you are logged into your UMD account. Only these accounts can schedule rooms. Terpmail accounts will not work; it must be just your @umd.edu email address account. Switch or add an account if not: Google has instructions here. When adding an account you will be prompted by Google for your email/phone. This is your UMD username that you use to log into the UMD Central Authentication System (CAS) appended with @umd.edu. For example username@umd.edu. You will then be redirected to the UMD CAS login page if you don't have a current session open.

  4. Search for the room you wish to schedule by clicking the "Rooms" tab on the right. Rooms are of the form "IRB XXXX". Note: You can search available rooms only or all rooms. Rooms that appear with strikethough text are not available to reserve at the time(s) you have chosen.
