Google Calendar

Using Google Calendar

Use Google Calendar to see where and when a class is held and to schedule meetings, inviting participants and reserving rooms.

Visit Google Calendar Help Center to get started or for more information.

Adding calendars

In addition to your own calendar, other calendars can be displayed at the same time.

To add someone’s calendar to your list, click the “Add a coworker’s calendar” box, then enter their email address. To add several at once, select, from the “Other calendars” right dropdown, “Add a friend’s calendar,” and enter several addresses.

Other calendars (such as for rooms) can be entered, if you know their ID. A Calendar ID has the form of an email address and is found in that calendar’s Settings/Details.

Usually, when a calendar is shared with you, a link is included, so you wouldn’t need to know its ID.

You may also create calendars.

Managing your list of calendars

• “My calendars” is a list of calendars for which you have permission to Make changes AND manage sharing.
• All others appear beneath “Other calendars” (though calendars may be hidden).

To see ALL of your calendars, on your calendar page, look under the gear wheel for “Settings,” then select the “Calendars” tab. For each calendar, you can:

• hide and keep it from showing up on your main calendars page
• change reminder and notification settings
• unsubscribe

Notable CMU-SV calendars

• To add that calendar to your list, click the corresponding “[add]” link, which will open to your calendars, and you’ll be given the option to add, if not already on your list.
