Corrections in the Fifth Printing of the Tenth EditionThe fifth (and subsequent) printings of the Tenth Edition of Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised contain a number of corrections. (It's easy to tell what "printing" of the 10th edition you have: on the back of the title page, it is the first number on the bottom line.) Most of the corrections are of typographical and minor formatting errors, with no conceivable substantive impact. They are not noted here. A few, however, are worthy of note because they correct reference pages (particularly in the index) or for other reasons. They are listed below so that if you have a printing earlier than the fifth you may, if you wish, note them in your copy:
INDEX
As a matter of policy, the rules in the body of RONR's text are not changed in different printings of the same edition, so that any copy of the same edition will remain equally authoritative. Corrections in the Introduction or Index do not violate this policy, since they do not affect the rules themselves – nor, for the same reason, do typographical or formatting corrections. Nor do the corrections noted above with regard to Fix the Time to Which to Adjourn, since they simply correct a summary table in the tinted pages and the brief summary in section 6 to conform to the principal statement of the rules governing the motion in section 22. Nevertheless, to avoid any confusion that might come from comparing the text in an earlier printing with that in a later one, brief explanatory footnotes have been added to the latter corrections. Permission is hereby granted to parliamentary and other publications to reprint "Corrections in the Fifth Printing" so long as it is attributed to the Official Robert's Rules of Order Website, www.robertsrules.com., posted February 11, 2002.

"It is recommended that each officer of an organization obtain a copy of the 176 page Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised in Brief (RONRIB) to use as a meeting guide. Interested members who wish to participate fully in meetings will find it to be invaluable. This 'in brief' book is one of the best values around! For more in-depth information, you will also want a paperback copy of the 704 page Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised (RONR) to be used as a reference (when more information is needed), which the 'in brief' book cross references and refers to by page and line number. If you are serious about parliamentary procedure, buy the long-lasting hardcover edition of RONR as a reference book for your personal library.

Written by the same authorship team as Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised (RONR), this short easy-to-read guide covers the essentials on the rules most frequently used at meetings. At 176 pages, this handy pocket manual is roughly one-fourth the number of pages of RONR, yet this brief guide is entirely consistent with the larger 704 page RONR, something that cannot be said for other short books on parliamentary procedure. RONR, Henry M. Robert's classic guide to smooth, orderly, and fairly conducted meetings, was originally published in 1896 and has sold close to 5 million copies in nine editions. This 704 page, 10th edition, Parliamentary Authority will continue the book's reputation as the gold standard of meeting procedure for professional parliamentarians and novice club presidents and members alike. When you need the details, this is the book to get!
