What is the Online Room Reservation System?
The medical campus online reservation system, Event Management System (EMS), is hosted by the UW Department of Information Technology (DoIT) and managed by the SMPH Room Reservations group. The SMPH Room Room Reservations Office hours are Monday – Friday, 8:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
This platform is a centralized portal for SMPH and UW Health faculty, staff, and students to access and reserve instructional, meeting, and event space within the medical school campus. The rooms in the system are primarily lecture halls, conference and meeting rooms, and study spaces. This includes the Health Sciences Learning Center (HSLC), Clinical Sciences Center (CSC), Medical Foundation Centennial Building (MFCB), and Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (WIMR), among other spaces in our system.
Depending on your position and department you will have access to a variety of instructional, study, training, meeting, or other event spaces and equipment/furniture. With the system’s tools and functionality you can search for specific features (room configurations, locations, technology, sizes, etc) reserve individual meetings, as well as recurring and even a varied series of reservations. This includes the ongoing ability to access and review current and former reservations, make edits/cancellations to upcoming event details, and reserve certain furniture or event equipment you may need.
With hundreds of rooms included within this centralized system, standard requests for space should be properly submitted via a fully activated user account. General requests submitted via email will not be processed. Please see instructions on account activation, and special request procedures outlined within the other tabs.
The Room Reservations office also coordinates the EMS system separately for specific SMPH departmental spaces under MOUs, including the Surgery Department, Wisconsin Psychiatric Institute and Clinics.

When Can I Make a Room Reservation?
Academic/timetable courses and the academic mission of the school is SMPH’s priority and is reflected in our Room Reservation Guidelines. Therefore access to the online schedules are released by the semester and not annually and based on the medical school’s course schedule. Please review the order of prioritization outlined within the Room Reservation Guidelines for clarification.
If you are attempting to request space further out than the current semester and the system appears to have an error, it is likely that the schedule is not open for general access yet. Many access schedules can be found by clicking the “about” button next to the specific template you’re considering once logged into your online reservation account.
HSLC’s semester booking template, specifically, due the Medical Education Office schedule, is often not open for general booking until approximately three months prior to the start of the next semester. Fall template opens approximately around early June. Spring template opens approximately around early October. Summer template opens approximately around early March.

Reservation Best Practices at SMPH
- Before utilizing an SMPH managed space, reserve the space via the online Room Reservation System or a display tablet at the room.
- When booking a reservation, include setup time for arriving/prepping and cleanup/exiting time.
- The Confirmation email you receive will have the details for the reservation. Double check this for accuracy and keep it as a reference should there be a discrepancy upon arriving to your space.
- Only occupy the space during the time of your reservation, including setup/clean up time (see item #2).
- Respect the group prior to yours and do not disturb until the start of your reservation time. If they are still in the space at your start time, knock and ask respectfully when they will be finished; usually they are just wrapping up. If they believe the space is theirs, reference your Confirmation email and ask them to reference theirs to double check. No double bookings can occur in the online system.
- Exit by the end of your reservation time allowing time for cleanup of food, materials, return of reserved portable equipment to CAVS, and wiping soiled tables.
- Double check the time listed on your reservation to ensure you have what you need, including AM/PM accuracy. We regularly get lunch hour meetings scheduled at midnight.
- Clearly communicate start/end times and guidelines with anyone you’re coordinating reservations for, so all are in the loop.

What is the Status of COVID in SMPH and UW Health Spaces (CSC)
UW Health Wisconsin masking requirement to change effective April 1, 2024 : Due to a reduction and stabilization in the number of COVID-19 and RSV cases and hospitalizations, UW Health Wisconsin will be adjusting its masking policies for its facilities. Starting April 1: all Wisconsin providers, staff, patients and visitors in all low-risk ambulatory clinics are no longer required to wear a mask; providers, staff, patients and visitors are still required to mask in all patient and procedure rooms, as well as waiting areas in the inpatient setting and high-risk ambulatory locations; and there are no changes to cafeteria areas or non-patient interaction spaces. More information available on U-Connect (requires UW Health login or VPN to access).
What if Your Reserved Space is Occupied When you Arrive?
SMPH meeting and conference rooms should be properly reserved through the online Room Reservation System, and include all times you or someone from your group will be present within the space, including setup and teardown. Once reserved, the person who submitted the request will receive a Confirmation email. Always double check the date, time, and location, including setup and tear down times, are listed accurately on the Confirmation email. You can also review this information within your online account under the “My Events” section. Keep your confirmation email should a later reference be needed.
If you arrive and the room you have reserved is occupied, double check your reservation to confirm the date, time, and location using the Confirmation Email or the Building Schedule. Many events occur consecutively on the schedule, but the online system will never allow for double booking of any location.
If your reservation time has started, please knock and ask if the other group will be finishing up soon because your group has reserved the space now.
If the group believes the space belongs to them, reference your Confirmation Email which can demonstrate the space belongs to your group. Share the confirmation email with them and ask them to double check theirs. The online system does not allow double bookings.
If the room is locked when you arrive please consult the resources listed on your building specific confirmation email for who to contact regarding access.

Food in HSLC and SMPH
Food is allowed in most spaces in HSLC.
Food in Lecture Halls: Food is allowed in the lecture halls, but we recommend serving food outside the lecture hall and therefore reserving the space directly outside the lecture hall or the Atrium. Let Room Reservations staff know your intentions in order to reserve the space outside the room for tables.
On-Campus Options for Food Service at HSLC: Wisconsin Union; UW Housing; UW Health Catering in CSC: https://uwhealthcatering.catertrax.com/ Don’t forget the Union has a snack shop in the HSLC Atrium – Badger Market in HSLC (608-890-1964) – where coffee and snacks can be purchased by your attendees directly during open hours.
Water: You may need a water source for catering for your food service. Pro planner tip: Reserving 1203 HSLC in addition to your lecture hall or Atrium in order to access a sink with running water or to store catering carts and supplies out of plain view may be helpful to you.
Tidy up: Chances are another group is coming into the space soon after your group ends. Wipe down tables and tidy up before vacating the space, as you would want done for your group. Plan ahead and bring some wipes and paper towels in your meeting supplies. Pro planner tip: bring a few wet soapy wash cloths from home in a zip lock bag and bring them out for cleanup.
Serving Tables: Extra tables to serve food on are ordered through your online room reservation account using the Moveable Equipment and Furniture template. Tables are picked up and returned by you to Classroom and AV Services (CAVS) office in 1240 HSLC. If you require more tables than the CAVS inventory, you should order them through Facilities Planning and Management. The Atrium should be returned to the standard Atrium Setup when the event concludes.
There are also companies who have purchasing contracts with UW campus for tables and chairs rental. Visit UW Business Services website for more information about renting tables and chairs from outside vendors: https://www.bussvc.wisc.edu/purch/contract/wp5979.html
Garbage Cans: If you are serving boxed lunches or items that will produce quite a bit a garbage, there are (2) 55-gallon cans you can reserve through your online room reservations account through the Moveable Equipment and Furniture template. Pick those up at the CAVS office at 1240 HSLC. You can also request extra garbage bags through the CAVS office. Classrooms typically have the smaller office type garbage cans and cannot handle a large load of trash from meals. The HSLC atrium does have some permanent cans. You can also request cans through Facilities and Planning Management (FP&M). Campus custodial service does not come through the space until after hours.
Food Delivery: Food Delivery from on or off campus caterers is best handled on the northeast side of HSLC in Parking Lot 74. There is a 10 minute loading zone for deliveries. See the yellow circled area where the doors and a ramp are located.
Licensed Vendors: Food must be provided by a licensed food caterer or vendor. Consider using a campus food service operations such as Housing and the Wisconsin Union.
SMPH Official Functions and Events Pre-Approval Form: If your SMPH event is an “official function”, a pre-approval form may be required. An Official function and expense is a reasonable and moderate expenditure (excluding alcoholic beverages) directly associated with a university “official functions” that may have a social component but substantially advances or contributes to the university’s mission. This may require a signature on a event SMPH Pre-Approval Form by the department delegated division business office executive. See your division head for more guidance.

- Functions for parents of preregistering students.
- Inauguration ceremony for a new chancellor.
