[Web4lib] Online Calendars

[Amanda Lunn]

I'm new to this listserve, so I hope that this is not a question that
has already been hashed out on here.  My library is looking for a
calendar system/program that can be used library wide to keep track of
each department's public events as well as some private, staff events.
Of course each department would like to be able to color code their
events and be able to enter their own events.  In general, the program
would like to have some customization options for style.  Initially, we
would like to use it for in-house purposes only, but will probably make
it available to the public after some time.  

 

We would prefer not to have to install it on our web server, but am open
to good products that are only available that way.  Localcalendar.com
seems to be the most popular option out there that fits our needs.  Has
any library had any positive experiences (or negative for that matter)?
Has anyone used any other products successfully?

 

Thanks for your time!
