Some conference rooms around campus have been upgraded to accommodate hybrid Zoom meetings. These conference rooms are now called Zoom Rooms and are equipped with audio-visual hardware set up with a Zoom software account. The Zoom Room naming convention is building abbreviation, Zoom, then conf rm number. Viewing, editing, and canceling a meeting being held in a Zoom Room is no different from any other meeting location.
Scheduling a Zoom Room for a Meeting
- Create a new calendar event and enter the details such as title and attendees.
- Add the Zoom Room as a required attendee, rather than selecting the room from the Location Field.
- The Zoom Room naming convention is building abbreviation, Zoom, conf rm number. i.e., 25SP ZOOM CONF RM 436
- Add Zoom to the event.
- Enter the room location in the Location field so that physical attendees will know where to go.
Tips for Hosting or Attending a Meeting in a Zoom Room
- The first person to enter the room should select Start Meeting from the touchpad in the conference room.
- The Zoom room cannot be the host of the meeting.
- Host and attendees may sign into the meeting from their laptops.
- Select connect without audio or mute your laptop's microphone and speakers to avoid audio feedback.
