Create New Roomset

What is a Roomset?

A roomset is a group (or set) of rooms with the same Principal Investigator (PI) in one Department, Lab, or Center (DLC). Often these roomsets are laboratories, but they could also be other groups of rooms. Grouping rooms into a roomset allows them to be inspected more efficiently.
Note: In this context, the Laboratory for Computer Science, Lincoln Lab, and the Media Lab, to name a few, are DLCs, not small "l" labs. However, within their facilities, they may have any number of "labs" that are roomsets.
