Space Availability - ACRL Zoom


 

ACRL Virtual Meeting Information
As an organization, we understand the importance of having various tools available to meet and work on ACRL initiatives throughout the year, and we’re committed to making the overall virtual meeting process smooth for you. Whether you need to request a room for a large discussion forum or a mid-size committee meeting, we're here to assist you with those requests. However, due to the increasing demand for meeting space from our 300+ groups, we encourage you to please consider using your own virtual meeting software for smaller meetings less than one hour. You might want to look into obtaining a free Zoom account or a Free Conference Call account.
