By default, everyone who has a Cornell Exchange account has limited access to your calendar. As they create a meeting invitation, they will be able to see (on the Scheduling Assistant tab) whether you are free or busy, but they won’t be able to see any other information about your schedule (such as the meeting title, who is invited, or where it’s taking place).

Sharing your calendar allows people to look at the items on your calendar in more detail. You specify whether they can simply view the details for your calendar, or whether they can also create and/or edit items on your calendar.

Share Your Calendar with Everyone at Cornell

 From either Outlook for Windows, Outlook for Mac, or Outlook on the web:

2. Right-click the calendar you want to share (touch and hold on a touchscreen device). 
   1. Your default calendar is under the My Calendars dropdown.
3. Select Sharing Permissions... from the dropdown menu.
4. Select the preferred sharing option under Permissions, then select OK. You can reference permission levels for more information on each setting.

Share Your Calendar with Specific People

 After following steps 1-3 above:

1. Select Add...
2. In the box next to Add, enter the email address of the person with whom you want to share the calendar. 
3. Select OK.
4. Select the permission level that you wish to provide this person.

The person you are sharing with will receive a notification message that tells them that you have shared your calendar, the permissions you have granted, and instructions on how to add the calendar to their list of calendars.
