Adding OWU Events to your Google Calendar

The new OWU Events Calendar brings new functionality to the OWU Community.  If you want to add the upcoming events to your google calendar, just follow these steps:- Go to your google calendar
- Click the drop down arrow next to "Other Calendars"
- Select "Add by URL"
- Paste in this address:  http://owuevents.owu.edu/?&upcoming=upcoming&format=ics&limit=100

You can then show and hide the calendar as you see fit.  Also, you can plug in the events to your blog or any other rss reader using the following URL:  http://owuevents.owu.edu/?&upcoming=upcoming&format=rss&limit=100

Of course, if you want to get specific, you can subscribe to specific search results.  For example, this link shows Lectures and Speakers:  http://owuevents.owu.edu/?&search=search&q=lectures%2Fspeakers&format=rss

For any search query, just click on the .ical or rss icon to get the feed URL, and plug it in!
