- More Specificity In Availability - When setting up availability in LibCal Appointments, try and provide more than a range of times. Try dividing up availability times by location.
Specify that from 9am to 11:30am you will be in your office and then from 1pm to 4pm you're available at a different branch or campus library.
Newly Released LibCal Feature
We aim to be a real partner for your library. As you grow and evolve, so do we with regular updates that address your concerns and specifics.
- Understanding Challenges - There are a number of connections in the library including the parent/child relationship for groups of spaces. You have shared with us this particular -- but not uncommon -- scenario and we heard you! With this latest update, make a large meeting room the parent of two smaller meeting rooms. So that there is no confusion with booking these spaces, we made it so that:
- If the Parent space is busy, the child spaces will not be available for booking;
- If any of the child spaces are booked, the parent space will be unavailable.
Sometimes it's the little things that matter most. To learn about all the new LibCal feature updates, don't miss this Training Tidbits session.

Each profile paints an in-depth picture of how they interact with the library and their inter-relationships with other users and organizations.
- Robust Task Management - One of the easiest ways to establish trust in a relationship and to work with integrity is to call when you say you're going to call. It's simple. LibCRM has a task manager that will help you keep the work that has to be done sorted.
