The calendar has officially turned and, believe it or not, we are into 2012.  That means new calendars, and many people rely on Microsoft Word and their widely used calendar templates to get them started in a new month or new year.  Calendar templates for Word are especially popular with business customers, but are also widely used in homes around the world.

With the added functionality of Office 2010, Word has become an even better tool for both home and business users.  With that comes even cooler calendar templates for Word 2010.  Microsoft  has tried to please both business and home users with their new templates.

“All of these calendars take advantage of familiar Word 2010 features to let you design your own calendar. For example, you can Use themes and change colors to give the calendar’s border a different look.

We’ve got photo calendars, which you might want to use at home, and business calendars for your office. Each calendar has two versions:

• One with the week starting on Monday and ending on Sunday
• And another with the week starting on Sunday and ending on Saturday”

The new Photo calendars allow the user to select their own pictures to include on each page.  The new templates, and links to them, are listed below.

• One page family photo calendar (Monday – Sunday)
• One page family photo calendar (Sunday – Saturday)

• Twelve-month photo calendar in tabloid format (11″x17″) paper (Monday – Sunday)
• Twelve-month photo calendar in tabloid format (Sunday – Saturday)

• Basic twelve-month photo calendar for letter size (8.5″x11″) paper (Monday – Sunday)
• Basic twelve-month photo calendar for letter size (Sunday – Saturday)

For business users, Microsoft has specially formatted Word calendars that allow you to add your company logo, web address, and also change the photos so you can brown-nose your boss and embarrass your co-workers.  The list, and links, are below.

• One-page business calendar (Monday – Sunday)
• One-page business calendar (Sunday – Saturday)
• Quarterly calendar with four months per sheet in landscape orientation (Monday – Sunday)
• Quarterly calendar with four months per sheet in landscape orientation (Sunday – Saturday)

Microsoft Office templates are free to download and use.  You can browse them all by visiting the Templates Library.
