Oberst Henry Martyn Robert erkannte die Notwendigkeit einheitlicher Regeln für organisatorische Abläufe. Er beobachtete, dass unterschiedliche Ansichten über das richtige Verfahren, die von Mitgliedern aus verschiedenen Regionen vertreten wurden, die Arbeit vieler Vereine behinderten. Er war von der Notwendigkeit eines neuen Handbuchs überzeugt, das es Organisationen ermöglichen würde, einen einheitlichen Regelkatalog zu verabschieden. Seine Bemühungen zielten darauf ab, standardisierte Praktiken für die effektive Leitung von Versammlungen und Beratungen zu etablieren.

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.
