Managed buildings
If you work in a building that is managed by the Estates Services Facilities Management (FM) team, you can book meeting rooms via your building page if your building has subscribed to using the Planon system for reservations. You can also book catering for meetings via Occasions.
Please keep in mind that some departments do not make all their rooms available via FM Online. You might be able to reserve additional facilities in different ways, for example via the Nexus email system. Please contact the Estates helpdesk for advice via estates.helpdesk@admin.ox.ac.uk or call on 01865 270087.
Details for all buildings managed by the FM team can be found on the Estates Services website.
