Tech Tip: Using ‘Find a Time’ With Your UA Little Rock Google Calendar

Coordinating meeting times with colleagues at UA Little Rock can often take hours—or even weeks. Messages like ‘Let me know when everyone is available to meet’ tend to circulate endlessly, delaying progress.

Here are some practical tips to make one of Google Calendar’s most useful features even easier to use.

A helpful solution is the ‘Find a Time’ feature available in official university Google Calendars. This tool streamlines the scheduling process by allowing users to quickly identify the best time for all participants.

Step-by-step guide to using Find a Time in Google Calendar:

  • Open Google Calendar on a computer.
  • Create a new event or edit an existing one.
  • Add guests by entering their names or email addresses in the “Add guests” box.
  • Click the “Find a time” tab to view side-by-side schedules of all invitees.
  • Click and drag to select a suitable time, or choose an open slot—Google Calendar will automatically update the event time.
  • Save the event to finalize it and send invitations to all guests.

This feature makes scheduling meetings more efficient and less stressful! Give it a try!
