Creating a room list and room mailbox with Exchange 2013

Room lists with Exchange 2013 are actually in reality Distribution Groups with the "RoomList" property enabled.

In order to create a room list we can use EMS:
New-DistributionGroup -Name "UK Office Rooms" -OrganizationalUnit "mydomain.com/meetingrooms" -RoomList
We can then add a room mailbox to the list:
Add-DistributionGroupMember -Identity "UK Office Rooms" -Member MeetingRoom3@mydomain.com
There is also a great little script I found on mikepfeiffer.net which returns all of the Room Lists in EMS:
foreach($roomlist in Get-DistributionGroup -RecipientTypeDetails RoomList) {
  $roomlistname = $roomlist.DisplayName
  Get-DistributionGroupMember $roomlist.alias |
    Select-Object @{n="Room List";e={$roomlistname}},
                  @{n="Room";e={$_.DisplayName}}   
}
