How to Reserve a University Facility or Space
- Contact the scheduling coordinator for the facility or space you want to use to check on its availability.
- Complete the required forms to reserve the facility or space.
- When reserving facilities for events or activities, the event planner will consider (a) whether the requested location is suitable for the event or activity, and (b) whether health and safety concerns require special precautions or arrangements (e.g., security staff; Emergency Medical Service personnel; other security; insurance requirements; and related loss prevention measures).
- Reservations for facilities and spaces are generally decided on a first-come, first-served basis. Occasions may arise when an official University activity takes precedence for use of an already scheduled space. In the event rescheduling is necessary, the event planner will work with the individual or organization sponsoring the displaced activity to find suitable alternative locations and times that are reasonable under the circumstances.
- Every event is unique, bringing with it specific risks and requirements. Events may be evaluated for the likelihood and consequences of potential risks.
- The department or unit that reserves and oversees the facility or space will provide an agreement to the party requesting the reservation that defines the date, time and location for the event or activity and expectations for security, insurance, and safety regarding the event along with any additional special requirements.
- The reservation is complete when the agreement is signed by both parties and all expectations and requirements are met.
