Creating the Meeting

Within Outlook, open your calendar and click on the New Skype Meeting option in the Home ribbon.

...

If this is a blended meeting (some online participants and some on-campus), be sure to edit the location to include the on-campus meeting room.

The Web Plugin

The most challenging aspect of scheduled meetings occurs when you need to include others who are not using Skype for Business/Lync. While regular/consumer Skype accounts can be added to your Skype for Business contacts list, Skype contacts cannot be invited to Skype for Business meetings. (Refer to https://uwaterloo.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ISTKB/pages/1981218829/Using+Skype+for+Business#Skype-and-Skype-For-Business-can-co-exist for more information about Skype contacts)

Advanced meeting options

Every Skype for Business account has a dedicated meeting space with these default permissions set. For many meetings these default settings will work just fine – it’s like having an “Open Door” policy for your own office. 

...

Remember, it’s a new room. If you have back-to-back meetings where you have set the option to create a new meeting space, you will need to leave the first meeting and join the second one from Outlook or the meeting invitation. You are essentially moving rooms between meetings.
