Once you exit the Calendar, you will need to login again using the same User Name and Password if you need to edit an existing event. You can use these instructions for Editing events already listed on the Calendars. Please contact library@hawaii.edu if there is a problem in editing events for Hamilton Classrooms or Conference Rooms. For Hamilton department Calendars and for the Sinclair Calendars, please contact the specific calendar administrator.
  • Your new events will then be shown to anyone who accesses your calendar!

    *Event Types

    There are three different types of events that you can add to your calendars:

    Daily These are events that occur for a single day.
    Duration These are events that happen over a period of time, such as a conference or a vacation.
    Periodic These are events that happen periodically, such as a Thursday morning meeting every week or a payday that happens on the 15th and 30th of each month.


    Semester-long classes or events in Classrooms 113, 156, and 301 require approval by the Public Services Division Head PRIOR to entering reservations using the “Periodic” function in the calendar.

If you need assistance in editing a calendar event, please contact the Library Administrative Support staff at library@hawaii.edu. If you have specific software or hardware needs for the Classrooms, please send a detailed request to the DNS Web Help Desk. Please review the Guidelines for reserving Hamilton Library classrooms.
