Description
Robert’s Rules of Order Newly Revised, 12th Edition is the current official edition of the widely recognized guide to parliamentary procedure.
Used by professional associations, fraternal organizations, local governments, and other organizations, it provides a common framework for conducting meetings and handling parliamentary questions.
Released in September 2020, the 12th Edition supersedes all earlier editions for organizations that have adopted Robert’s Rules of Order as their parliamentary authority. Using the same edition throughout an organization helps ensure that members are working from the same rules, references, and procedures.
The 12th Edition includes section-based paragraph numbering for easier cross-referencing, an expanded appendix of charts and tables, sample rules for electronic meetings, and additional explanations covering motions, voting, points of order, appeals, elections, minutes, and more. It also incorporates numerous clarifications and refinements based on questions and situations that have arisen in organizational meetings.
Whether kept on hand by a lodge, chapter, board, committee, or individual member, the 12th Edition is an essential reference for organizations that use Robert’s Rules of Order.
