We're also using MRBS with a customized front end and an integration with a 
Library Hours service that I developed.  With the library hours integration we 
can prevent people from scheduling an event in a room when the library itself 
is closed.  There is also development underway on an Events aggregator service 
that I developed that would sit on top of MRBS so that Events scheduled in 
these rooms can be aggregated with events from the Campus events system and 
workshops created using our Evanced site.

Hello Rosalyn,

Our Library just went live with an implementation of MRBS < 
http://mrbs.sourceforge.net/>.  Check it out here:

https://phpapps.csupomona.edu/librooms/

If you do a search on Google, you'll see that a lot of libraries are using this 
free software.   If you are or have a PHP programmer, that will be even better 
because you'll be able to customize it.  MRBS also has a fairly active listserv 
group with the two primary programmers responding to questions regularly.

Good luck,

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if you had suggestions for an online room reservation system.  
I feel like people have asked this question before but I can't seem to find the 
thread.  I want something that people can self schedule themselves.
