\"\"<\/a>Microsoft Book with Me (Bookable Time) is a personal scheduling tool, enabling you to create a specific service or meeting type (ie. Office Hours<\/em> or Course Consultation<\/em>), specify available hours, and create a user-friendly, shareable web page.<\/p>\n

Through integrations with your Exchange calendar, you’ll only be bookable if you don’t have a conflicting meeting. You can also assign certain services as public or private, creating restrictions on how your time can be reserved. It offers a fast and friendly alternative to what is typically the frustrating, time-consuming process of meeting coordination.<\/p>\n \t\t

\r\n \t\t\tBook with Me pages are intended to enable individuals to create and manage services just for them<\/span> \t\t\t \t\t\t\t
