The following are instructions on how to add a department Shared Calendar, or Room Calendar (Resource), to your Outlook profile on a Mac

Requirements:

Prior to being able to add a shared/room calendar to your existing Outlook profile, you should already have some kind of viewing rights established (view, editor, etc..). The following instructions are also specific for Outlook on Mac.

2. In the Home tab click the Open Calendar button

3. Click the icon to the right of the User field

4. Search for and select the name of the resource whose calendar you would like to view from the list. Click OK
