The Norse Calendar will be the primary campus calendar (replacing Oracle Calendar) as of Jan. 1, 2009. This is a campus-wide calendar (available to all faculty, staff, and students) so the more who use the calendar, the more useful it is for the Luther community.

LIS cannot transfer information from Oracle Calendar into Norse Calendar. However, it is possible for you to export your Oracle Calendar meetings for historical purposes. This workshop has been scheduled to assist you in exporting your information.
