Dear Elena,

Please have a look at http://www.cirklo.org/agendo.php

Agendo is an open source booking system with lots of options originally made by core facility managers.

Be aware though that installation can be tricky, you will need email, http and database servers, backups, etc.

Cirklo also offers hosting that can be paid by you or by a sponsor by adding advertising in the booking page. Have a look at this example from Fisher Scientific.

Please contact me off list for further details.


All the best,
Nuno Moreno
