Creating a Public Calendar

As a first step to making public sharing possible, you should create a calendar that is

1. separate from your default calendar and
2. by its name it reminds you that it's a publicly-viewable calendar.

You should choose a name with no spaces in it; in my case I chose a name of "CJpublicANL" for my publicly-viewable Zimbra calendar. To do this, first go to the web page http://zimbra.anl.gov and log in. Pick the Calendar tab at the top, and then create a new calendar by clicking on the calendar add button at the upper left:

When you click on this to create your new calendar, type the name you've chosen (without spaces!) and perhaps color it red to remind yourself that it's a publicly-viewable calendar:

Your new calendar now exists. However, you still need to do two more things in Zimbra:

• Share the calendar with a colleague at Argonne, so that they can view it and add or edit events.
• Share the calendar for viewing (read-only) by anyone.
