Naming rooms and calendar resources based on a naming convention facilitates resources being grouped in a logical way, making them easier to find when seeking to add a room or resource to an event. The Office of Information Technology (OIT) recommends that you use CamelCase in the descriptive identifier (refer to Examples below).
