Reserving Central Library's Meeting Rooms for Staff Appointments

From Virtual Library:

Greetings HPL Team,

In our efforts to continually improve the user experience for our staff and customers, we have implemented LibCal, a new online meeting room reservation tool.

Here's what you need to do to book a meeting room:

• At this time, LibCal is only available for Central Library's meeting rooms;
• From the staff Intranet:
• Click on "Reserve a Room" box on the lower right side:

• Or go directly to https://houstonlibrary.libguides.com/srb;
• Reservation blocks are in 30 minute increments and you can select more than one;
• A green block means available to reserve and a red block means not available;
• Pay attention to the date and time to make sure you have selected the desired slot;
• Select the start time block and click that box only once;
• Next, select the meeting end time;
• Submit request;
• You will receive confirmation from the room booking coordinator;
• If you do not receive a confirmation, make sure to follow up in advance of your meeting;
• Do not assume that the room is booked for you unless you receive an email confirmation!
• Meeting room coordinator will follow up about room set up and technology needs.

Library customers may also use LibCal to submit meeting room reservations for Central Library ONLY. The form is available on the Central Library Spaces' page.

Contact the Virtual Library team if you have questions.
