    Reserve TAB 108 using EMS

    Technology Services has transitioned the TAB 108 room reservation process from Google Calendar to VCU EMS (Events Management System). To enter a TAB 108 reservation, you must have a VCU EMS account. If you do not have a VCU EMS account, you will need to request one. It may take up to 2 business days to activate your VCU EMS account.

    Until you receive access to VCU EMS, please submit a room request by submitting a Service Desk ticket via the VCU IT Support Center or call (804) 828-2227 for additional assistance.
