How to Reserve Flex Spaces at Wool

Background: 

Below you will find the locations of the ITS Flex Desks, which are located on the 3rd floor of the Wool Center. As we move closer towards implementing a Flex Schedule, these desks will be available for reservation for ITS staff. Flex Desks are available for reservation through the Outlook client and the web version of Outlook. There are 3 spots that have standing desks. Flex Desks are reserved similarly to meeting room reservations. Here is an example of the naming convention; "WLC-3-Flex Desk 1". Below are examples of reservations via Outlook Web Version and the Outlook Client Version.
