[CASL-L] Google Calendar as scheduler for computer labs and carts

[Sarah Lynch]

Hi Thomas,

If you want to allow teachers to book their own times into the calendars,
then you should use the Appointments feature of Google Calendar. I just
Google the feature to send you a link for how to use it, but Google says it
is going away as of Jan 2013. :-( I'm hoping they are replacing it with
something else as this is a very nice feature for what you want to do.

Here is the info on appointment slots. Maybe they will replace it with an
updated feature.
