Outlook Web App allows you to add other calendars to your calendar view. Depending on the permission levels you have been granted, you will be able to act on these permissions (Free/busy, Read, Write, etc.).

How do I add another person's calendar to my calendar view?
If you've received an invitation to share someone else's calendar, you can select the link in the invitation to add their calendar to your calendar view.
You can also go your Calendar to add other people's calendars to your view.

1. Open the app launcher tool in the top left of your Outlook Web App window as shown below.

2. Select calendar from the list of available apps.

3. Within the Navigation Pane, right-click Other calendars. Or, touch and hold if you're using a touchscreen device.
4. Select Open calendar.

5. To add a calendar that belongs to someone in your organization (or a resource calendar), enter their name in From Directory. This box works just like the To box on a new email message. After you've entered the name, select Open to search for and add the calendar.

6. To add a calendar that has been published on the internet, such as a ShareURL, enter the URL in the Internet calendar box, and then select Open. The Internet calendar must be shared publicly and the URL should end with .ics.

After you've added the calendar, you can left-click on that calendar and interact with the events per the permissions you have been granted.
IMPORTANT: If you receive a URL from an Office 365 user and want to open up the URL via a web-browser, you must change 'HTTP' to 'HTTPS' for the URL to work properly.

Create a meeting
A meeting is a calendar event that you send to other people. You create a meeting the same way you do an appointment, but you invite attendees and may add a resource such as a conference room/equipment.
After you've selected New event icon, you follow most of the same steps. To turn a calendar item into an invitation, start by entering the names of people you want to invite in the Attendees field.

1. You can type names directly in the Attendees field to add them.
   Note: If you use the + (Add Attendees) button, the results of your search will be presented in a different format.
2. Enter a location, or select Add a room to see a list of available conference rooms from your organization's address book. Select Scheduling Assistant to show the calendars of attendees.
3. To see the availability of attendees and conference rooms, select Scheduling Assistant. When you're done, click OK icon to save your changes or Discard icon to cancel. Either will take you back to the event form where you can make any other changes you want before sending. For more information, see using the Scheduling Assistant.
4. By default, Request responses is turned on, but you can turn it off if you don't want to know who has accepted or declined the invitation. If you leave request responses on, you'll receive a message as each attendee accepts or declines your invitation.
5. Click Send icon to save your changes and send the invitation to the attendees or Discard icon to cancel.
