2. Complete the room reservation form. Note: submitting this form implies that you are accepting the usage guidelines posted below, along with the full conference room guidelines. 

3. Promote your event by submitting it to the CICS website events calendar  or submitting a digital sign to display in our buildings. 

Conference Room Information 

Room Reservations/Cancellations

  • The CICS Dean and Chair's Office has priority over the use of the rooms.
  • Requests will be processed during normal business hours and should be put in a minimum of two business days before the event.
  • One-person room requests will be automatically placed in our one-person meeting booths. If a one-person meeting is requested for a multi-person conference room, that reservation may be bumped for larger meetings.
  • To cancel a room that has been reserved, contact room-reservations [at] cs [dot] umass [dot] edu (subject: Please%20cancel%20my%20CICS%20room%20reservation, body: Date%3A%0ATIme%3A%0ARoom%3A) (room-reservations[at]cs[dot]umass[dot]edu) in advance of the meeting time.

Guidelines for Use

  • Conference rooms should not be used without a reservation.
  • Conference room tables must not be moved.
  • Chairs must be returned to their original position and pushed in neatly.
  • If food/drink has been brought into the room (only allowed in CS 150), you are responsible for wiping down the tables and removing all the trash from the room.

Key Access

  • If a key needs to be signed out for a specific room (for after-hours access, e.g.), please have the meeting organizer come to CSCF in the CICS building, room CS126, during normal business hours.
