LTDS worked with VUIT who have turned on the libcal plug-in for Zoom. This plugin allows the automatic creation, update, management and deletion of Zoom meetings and webinars for libCal events and appointments. Now library staff with a libCal account can begin using Zoom within LibCal to schedule online events and appointments.
To use the Zoom plugin, libCal users will need to do the following:
- Log into LibCal, click on your email address in the navigation bar.
- Click the Integrations tab of your Manage Account page.
- In the Zoom panel, click Authorize with Zoom account button and follow the prompts to finish the authorization.
- When you receive an email from zoom.us with a subject line of “libCal for Zoom is approved to use”, that means your libCal account is linked to your unique institutional zoom account, and you can start scheduling zoom appointments and events within your libCal account.
Feel free to try out this new feature! To set up virtual appointment and online events within libCal, please refer to this libguides, and submit an Inform if you encounter any issues.
Thanks for this! It’s very much appreciated!
Glad you find it useful!
