Description: Robert's Rules of Order Henry M. Robert Robert's Rules of Order has been the most widely used manual of parliamentary procedure in the United States for well over one hundred years. Originally entitled Pocket Manual of Rules of Order for Deliberative Assemblies and published in 1876, it is a collection of rules regarding parliamentary procedure that was written by then U.S. Army Colonel Henry Martyn Robert, a military engineer. It was inspired by his disastrous performance in leading a church meeting in 1863 at the First Baptist Church in New Bedford, Massachusetts, which erupted into open conflict on the issue of abolition. Robert felt his inadequate knowledge of proper procedure was to blame, and so he assembled the book of rules loosely modeled after those is use in the United States House of Representatives, with adaptations for its design for use in more ordinary societies outside of legislative bodies. While the book is described as “a codification of the present-day parliamentary law”, and is widely adopted by organizations as the definitive reference for procedural conduct, it has no basis in either statutory law, common law, or court precedent. The fact that numerous organizations adopt it as their formal reference speaks to its clarity and thoroughness. The book has been revised over the decades to accommodate cultural change. The Eleventh Edition was published in 2011 and contains rules governing such things as email, telephone conference calls, and video conferences. This reading is of the First Edition.

It will play on CD and DVD players that are designed with MP3 capability. The files contained in an MP3 CD can be imported and played on mobile devices such as the iPod, iPhone, iPad, Android tablets and smart phones and on PSP (Play Station Portable) and PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) devices. Your CD/DVD player or mobile device owner’s manual should specify whether the device has MP3 compatibility. If the device is not directly compatible with the MP3 Audio format, the files on the MP3 CD can be copied onto a computer drive and then played on the computer media player or transferred to a mobile device. The Recordings These recordings were made using the author’s original published work, which is in the public domain. The readings were recorded by members of Librivox.org, which has generously made the recordings available to the public domain. While Librivox condones the sale and distribution of these recordings, it is not associated with the management or operations of MP3 Audiobook Classics. The audio files have been lightly edited and have been engineered using professional audio tools for maximum sonic quality. We spend considerable time and effort to ensure the recordings are free of noise, equalized for maximum listener pleasure, and that tracks are leveled and normalized to provide a consistent listening experience.

The most economical service is generally USPS First Class for two-ounce shipments, which is the weight of a single CD in a paper sleeve or cardboard jacket. USPS Media Mail is the least expensive for four-ounce shipments, which is the weight of a single CD in a DVD case. Delivery Times - We ship within 2 business days after receipt of payment. Most items ship via USPS Media Mail or First Class. Lead time for Media Mail is 6-8 days and First Class is 1-4 days. The date of shipment is registered by eBay when the tracking information is entered. Tracking All our shipments are tracked. Tracking is done differently according to package format because of item size, weight, and cost. MP3 CDs with paper security sleeves and most MP3 CDs in jackets are shipped in a large envelope using tracking by LetterTrackPro. That service is part of the USPS Informed Visibility system. The tracking codes are accepted as valid by eBay. USPS provides updates as items are scanned throughout the delivery path, with the last scan occurring when the item is put out for delivery.

Returns of unopened items may be subject to a 10% restocking fee, which will be deducted from your credit or refund. We do not refund the original shipping and handling charges. Defective Merchandise - Because our products are data discs that may not play in CD audio players that are not compatible with MP3 data discs, we distinguish between discs that are not defective but will not play in a CD audio only player from discs that are truly defective and will not play in a MP3 compatible CD player or in a computer disc drive. Our listings have clear language that explains the unique nature of MP3 data discs. We ask that you attempt to play the discs on a computer CD or DVD ROM player to determine if the player or the disc is the problem. If you are unable to play the disc on a computer, we consider the disc to be defective.

Shipping charges on the initial order will credited or refunded. We will provide a shipping label for non-defective returns but ask that the customer pay for return postage.
