Date and time

Since Archie is used around the globe, it has been designed to show times and events in the users' local time zone.       

Event time zones

Events in Archie's Calendar are described by their start and end time and the time zone in which those times are taking place. But  when a user views the Calendar the events are shown adjusted for the user's local time zone.       

Example:

The module submission deadline for issue 4, 2007 of The Cochrane Library is set to be at 9:00 CET (GMT +1) on the 23 August 2007. To a user in the UK, this will appear in the Calendar as 8:00.     

Customizing date display  

You can specify how dates are displayed, and se a default time zone for new events you create. See Preferences
