I wrote my own Perl Scripts to do this and incorporated it all into our
website. If you're running a website that is Perl capable I can send you
my scripts and you should be up and running for no money in little time.

Check out www.llc.loyola.edu to see what the resulting schedules look
like.

There are, if I recall correctly, 3 scripts involved:

One for the administrator to create a new schedule for a resource.
One for instructors to pick from available resources (i.e. our
video-viewing room) and schedule a time to use them.
One for students to see when resources (i.e. movies) have been scheduled
to run.

Dear all,

I'm writing to see if anyone has suggestions for a web-based tool
allowing
faculty to reserve a lab for a class on their own.  Because my duties
have
shifted dramatically over the summer, we're looking into ways to
streamline
the daily operations of a humanities computer lab to free up my time for
other concerns.

Is there anything in the way of freeware or a commercial product that
would
be easy to use?  It should be something that allows an individual to
post a
class and delete it if needed, but not allow the individual to delete
someone else's posting.  It should also be something that can be limited
to
faculty use rather than for the whole campus.  If there's something
web-based that faculty members could access both on and off campus, that
would be great.

Thanks in advance for your help!

DS
