Date & Time Section:
On the left side of the page, change the date to when you want to reserve the Lightboard Room.
Please note: The system requires you to select a date multiple days in advance. If the date you want to reserve the Lightboard Room does not allow you to select it, you will need to use the In-Person, "Same-Day", Reservation process on the day of your desired session.
Once the date is correct, you can add a recurrence to your reservation, if desired, using the "Recurrence" button.
When you are finished with the Date & Time Section, move on to search for the room.

In the "Let Me Search For A Room" section, use the "Add/Remove" button associated with "Room Types" to open the Room Types filter window.
When the "Room Types"window opens, scroll through the list for "MRC - Lightboard Room" or use the search box to type it in.
Select that room type using the selection box next to it's name, ensuring that it displays in the "Selected Room Types" box at the bottom of the pop-up window. Then select "Update Room Types" in the bottom right corner.
