Who cares about Robert's Rules...

Bumping this thread to share that I recently got a book called Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised In Brief. It's really, really awesome.

Just friggen amazing isn't it!

Kind of lays out everything to follow even most in todays GLOs have no clue about it!

Ex: I want to make a motion!

Talk out of turn and bring things up that are not for the moment!

It is called an Agenda and makes thing so simple when followed!

There are 2 national organizations for those interesting in parliamentary procedure: NAP (National Association of Parliamentarians) and AIP (American Institue of Parliamentarians). Both have local chapters, and there may be one near your school. Most members of either group would be happy to have you get involved with their clubs and help you in learning parliamentary procedure. Also check to see if they would be willing to do a workshop with your school (I'm a member of a local NAP club, and we've done this several times).

The In Brief book is great, but is not intended as a replacement for the full Roberts Rules of Order, Newly Revised (RONR). In Brief is intended as a way to quickly learn parliamentary procedure. (there are also the Dummies, Complete Idiots, and Everything books on Roberts/Parly Pro).

Also, both NAP and AIP have bookstores with LOTS of materials, much created by these groups and only available from them.

Another resource is the Official Robert's Rules website: http://www.robertsrules.com/

When I was in Senate Leadership in college, we purchased a copy for every senator, and had workshops on how to use Roberts. We never had formal Roberts Rules workshops for the Greek community, but a vast amount of SG was Greek at the time so the information was carried over.

Now that I am a faculty adviser for the Student Council at the school I teach at, I find the Brief version very useful!
