Adding a Calendar to Outlook

Contents

These instructions are for adding another NetID account’s calendar to your desktop Outlook or Outlook on the Web (OWA). If you require additional access to another person’s calendar or you are using a macOS computer, the owner of that calendar may need to grant you Delegate Access – please see our dedicated guide on Delegate Access.

These instructions are for viewing Primary Calendars

Secondary calendars must be re-shared by the calendar owners to be re-added, and are generally not recommended for collaboration. Consider using a Departmental Account with a Shared Mailbox instead.

Navigate to mail.uvm.edu
Click the Calendar icon near the upper left corner to open the calendar tab, and then click Add calendar
In the window that pops up, click Add from directory, and then select your UVM account from the drop-down menu
Search for the calendar owner’s NetID or name, and then click their entry to select it
Use the drop-down menu to select which section you’d like the calendar to appear under, and then click Add
The calendar should now appear in the chosen section along the left side of the screen
