This year - 5778 - Shavu'ot will be on Sunday.
Outside of Israel the second day of Shavu'ot will be on Monday.
It's customary to read מְגִלַּת רוּת on Shavu'ot, between Hallel and the Torah Reading.
In Israel, מְגִלַּת רוּת will be read on Sunday and in the Diaspora most places will read מְגִלַּת רוּת on Monday.
One has to remember to leave a flame burning (like a Yahrzeit candle or gas range) from before Shabbat so that one can light the Yom Tov candles on Motzai Shabbat - Saturday night after dark.
