titleClick here to view information about working hours and location.

You can set up your calendar to know whether you work from 8am to 4pm, 9am to 5pm, take a routine lunch break, etc. If you work a hybrid schedule, spending some days in the office and some working from home, you can also set up your calendar to reflect that.

On a computer (you cannot access these settings on a mobile device), these options are found in Settings, which can be accessed from the gear cog near the top right of your screen.

You can either scroll down to the "Working hours & location" section, or use the quick link in the menu on the left.

  • Please note: At Drew, you will see a Location and Floor setting that you cannot change. We do not use these features.
  • If you do not wish to use either the working hours or location features, you can disable one or both by unchecking the appropriate box(es).
  • To block off a lunch hour, you can split your working hours for each day using the plus sign for that day; see an example below. You cannot, however, set different working locations for each day (as of this writing).

Appointment Slots

titleClick here to view information about Appointment Slots.

If you ever find a need to offer time blocks when you are available to meet with people, appointment slots may meet your need. One of the most popular uses for appointment slots are professors offering the option to reserve a time slot during office hours.

Things to note:

  • When you create appointment slots, you are set to busy for the duration of the appointment slot block(s).
  • Anyone you add as a guest to the appointment slot is invited to all of the appointments that get reserved. Their calendar will also show them as busy.
  • Those you want to reserve a time should follow the link to the appointment page for your calendar.

If you want to consistently offer a time for drop-in appointments, you can create recurring appointment blocks and share the calendar link - either with those you want to offer appointments to, or as part of your signature if that makes sense for you.
