OLD Outlook
- Open Microsoft Outlook and navigate to your Calendar

Alternatively you can also select the Home tab, then click "Add" from the Quick Access Toolbar at the top and follow the same steps:

- DONE!
NEW Outlook
- Open the NEW Outlook app, Navigate to the Calendar and select "Add calendar"

- Select "Add from Directory" then choose your email address from the list:

- In the field titled "Enter a name or email address" begin typing the name of the room calendar you wish to add then select from the available options (If you do not know the name of the room calendar, or if you do not see the calendar for a room you wish to add please reach out to Michael@impactdf.org for assistance):

- Once selected, click the dropdown under "Add to" and select the corresponding group you wish to see the calendar appear in then click "Add":

(For this example, we have used the "My calendars" option)
- The calendar will now appear under the group you selected:

- DONE!
Please note, it could take 45-60min for the events to fully update when added due to sync times.
