[Web4lib] Study room booking systems

[Erin R White/FS/VCU]

At VCU we are using Openroom, a PHP+MySQL application released last year 
by Ball State and written up in Code4Lib.

Students have really taken to it here - usage is through the roof during 
the semester. We've built a mobile version as well and are hoping to 
contribute it to the project this fall.

I was wondering what systems everybody used for study room bookings.  We
have 7 study rooms and plan on adding many more in the future.
Currently we use an Excel spreadsheet.  Obviously users can not book
rooms by themselves and see availability online which is an ability we
would like to have. 

 

Feel free to contact me off list if you prefer.

 

Thanks,

Mick
