A service overview and catalog of Google Groups provided by the UC Berkeley IT Service Hub.
Google Groups is a free mailing list service available to anyone with a UC Berkeley Google account. In addition to serving as a standard mailing list, it can be used to send calendar invites, and manage document sharing and permissions.
Provides one easy-to-remember email address for distributing messages to all group members.
Manage permissions for Google Drive folders or Calendar invites to instantly grant access to all current members.
Best Use: Simplifying communication and resource sharing by creating a consistent list of people (like a team, class, or committee) that only needs to be updated in one central location.
Integrates with: Gmail (as a mailing list), Google Drive (for permission management), and Google Calendar (for inviting multiple users with one address).
