[LIBRARYDIR] Study room booking system

[Goodwin, MaryAnn]

Community Colleges of Spokane uses 25Live to schedule space for everything, including library study rooms.  It is a functional, if not wonderful, tool that requires library staff have to make reservations, i.e., we don’t have an unmediated interface for student use.

Just some general info, but here are a couple of platforms related to scheduling.

25Live may be overkill, but it’s the room scheduling platform I’ve heard mentioned most often in the CTC’s:

https://corp.collegenet.com/products/scheduling/25live.html<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcorp.collegenet.com%2Fproducts%2Fscheduling%2F25live.html&data=02%7C01%7CMaryann.goodwin%40ccs.spokane.edu%7Cc9ec765839084a5556ea08d58ebd3b47%7C4dedfefa6bd04442a06c98aed0b4b8da%7C1%7C0%7C636571865765939585&sdata=OS3Pm0bDDxQzHpwxZUxVj4%2BOifdImHa8c%2BxX%2BVqi8sA%3D&reserved=0>

It may be more of a campuswide solution, than a library-specific one.

For libraries, the LibCal module from SpringShare (LibGuides vendor) is one I’ve heard mentioned a few times, and I believe it might be in use in a couple of the CTC’s:

https://www.springshare.com/libcal/<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.springshare.com%2Flibcal%2F&data=02%7C01%7CMaryann.goodwin%40ccs.spokane.edu%7Cc9ec765839084a5556ea08d58ebd3b47%7C4dedfefa6bd04442a06c98aed0b4b8da%7C1%7C0%7C636571865765939585&sdata=Uw423sdxmsgyIMmmYN3vJmfgv5nVjc9fEAHAAj53cFs%3D&reserved=0>

Good afternoon!
If anyone is using an electronic booking system for group study rooms, would you please contact me?  We are starting to review options including the Crestron panels which are used for equipment controls in all of our classrooms.  We are specifically interested in an online reservation system as well as touch panels that would be located outside each room.  Thanks!
