Outlook 2010 - Working with Calendar groups
Calendar groups enable you to view combined schedules for a number of people or resources. For example, you may regularly schedule meetings with the same people in department or faculty. By creating a Calendar group for each of these sets of people, you can quickly check their availability and then schedule a meeting.
Create a Calendar group
1. In Calendar view, click on the Home tab.
2. In the Manage Calendars group, click on the Calendar Groups button.
3. From the drop down list Create New Calendar Group.

4. Enter a name for your Calendar group and click OK.

5. The Global Address List will open. Select the people you want to add to your Calendar group and click OK.
6. Your new group Calendar will now appear in the Navigation pane. When you select the group (by placing a tick in the box next to the group Calendar name), each member's Calendar will be displayed side by side.
You can change the view of the Calendars in order to make scheduling meetings easier.
