Henry Martyn Robert Livres
Le colonel Henry Martyn Robert a reconnu la nécessité de règles unifiées dans les procédures organisationnelles. Il a observé que des points de vue divergents sur la procédure appropriée, partagés par des membres de diverses régions, entravaient le travail de nombreuses associations. Il s'est convaincu de la nécessité d'un nouveau manuel qui permettrait aux organisations d'adopter un ensemble cohérent de règles. Ses efforts visaient à établir des pratiques standardisées pour la gestion efficace des réunions et des délibérations.

The 1990, ninth edition of Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised is the authoritative volume containing the complete subject matter of Robert's Rules. It has been reset and redesigned for easier use and supersedes all previous editions, becoming the parliamentary authority for organizations that reference it in their bylaws. This edition addresses common inquiries and incorporates new rules, interpretations, and procedures reflecting the evolution of parliamentary procedure. Key revisions include modernized language for chair invitations to members for debate or secondary motions, clarification of the appointing authority's power to replace committee members, and formal recognition of sending suggested agendas to members before meetings. Additionally, improvements have been made for inexperienced presiding officers, and there is greater emphasis on rules for nominating candidates by petition. Specifications for expediting roll-call voting in large conventions and calling rolls by delegation are also included. A special section printed on tinted paper summarizes rules related to motions for quick access, enhancing usability for all members involved in parliamentary procedures.
