SCF ON-LINE ROOM RESERVATION INSTRUCTIONS

Making a room reservation:

The on-line version of FASTbook can check availability for dates, rooms and campus locations.  The calendar is located at http://fastbook.scf.edu/ . All room requests for internal events (not including classes) are to be submitted via FASTbook on-line.

Requests submitted on-line will be reviewed by the Auxiliary Services Department and placed on HOLD. Requests should be made at least 10 days in advance, no later than 5 days prior to event date . College classes take precedence over all events. Requests with no set-up will receive a confirmation stating there is no set-up within 2 business days.

Events requiring a set-up will receive an email within 2 business days containing an internal room reservation form. This form needs to be completed and returned via EMAIL, FAX or INTEROFFICE mail within 48 hours. Once the completed room reservation, with set-up instructions, has been received the event will be CONFIRMED. Requests are not confirmed (and subject to cancellation) if the form is not returned.

Please note “room requests” are subject to approval. Club events must be pre-approved by student services. Other internal events must be approved by requestor’s department head prior to making request. Events that require additional support services or occur after business hours may be subject to additional charges which may be charged back to the department.
