See a combined department calendar
To see availability for everyone in your department, select how you normally use email and calendars and then follow the steps below.
I normally use the Outlook desktop app for email
- Start on the Calendar screen. Click the icon below to switch to the Calendar screen from any other screen.
In the left menu, look for a heading called Team: followed by the name of your supervisor, e.g. Team: Susan Smith
I don't have a Team: entry
If you don't see this heading, click Calendar Groups in the top menu and make sure that Show Manager's Team Calendars is selected
- Select the Team: entry. All the calendars under it are selected automatically.
- You may end up with calendars presented side by side, as shown below.
To show all events on a single calendar, click the left arrow on each calendar tab to collapse them
To separate a calendar out for side-by-side viewing, click the right arrow on a calendar tab
I normally use a web browser for email
You can set up a similar view in Outlook for the web in any browser, but each calendar must be added to the group individually.
- Log in to Outlook for the web at https://mail.njstatelib.org/
- Go to the Calendar page by clicking the grid icon in the upper left corner, then selecting Calendar from the menu
- On the top menu, click Add calendar and select From directory from the menu
- Start typing the name of a colleague and select them from the list. Then click the Open button.
- The user will appear in the calendar list to the left under the Other calendars heading
- Repeat steps 3 and 4 for every colleague you want to add
- As you add calendars, they'll be combined in the main calendar view automatically
If you added the calendars through Outlook for the web, they will also appear in the Outlook desktop app under the Other calendars heading.
