We have two approaches to events in Drupal and WordPress.

1. Storing events within the site
   • Out of the box we can provide an Events content type with a number of fields related to events.
   • Events can be displayed in a block that can be placed in various places throughout the site. Examples include the homepage, the sidebar, etc.
   • An events listing page of all upcoming events is available to see large numbers of upcoming events.
   • Events can be a combination of:
     • Events entered on the site only.
     • Events entered in the Cornell Events Calendar and pulled into and stored in the events content type.
   • This listing of events allows for curation of which events are displayed on the site.
   • Events pulled from the Cornell Events Calendar will be linked to the Calendars listing, locally entered events can be linked anywhere.
2. Pulling events in real time from the Cornell Events Calendar
   • With this method a block can be configured to pull events and display them in a number of places on the site.
   • This is a lighter weight method for events, which does not need to store additional content in the site.
   • There is some customization as to the display of these events, but there is not a method to curate this content.
