Adding seminars to the OneNOAA Science Seminar Google Calendar

The seminar series are the most complete and integrated summary of NOAA science and climate seminars across the nation. In an effort to have a central online place for viewing and adding OneNOAA Science Seminars in one place, a Google Calendar has been created. Any NOAA office irrespective of geographic location or Line Office can nominate a Point of Contact to add seminars to the OneNOAA Science Google calendar. Please send Hernan.Garcia@noaa.gov the name of the person(s), email(s), and NOAA office affiliation(s). I will add the POC to the list of users that can add/edit OneNOAA seminars in the google calendar. Only NOAA staff with a valid NOAA email can add/edit the the calendar.

To add the public access OneNOAA Science Seminar Google Calendar layer to your existing google calendar (viewing)

Any person with a gmail account can add the Google Calendar layer to your google calendars by simply clicking on the plus google calendar icon located at the bottom right corner of the Google Calendar.
