About Microsoft Bookings

Microsoft Bookings is a scheduling tool included with Microsoft 365 that allows faculty, staff, and departments at the University of Arkansas to create personalized booking pages for meetings, office hours, advising sessions, and other appointments. It integrates with Outlook calendars and offers automated confirmation emails, reminders, and calendar updates.
