I am looking for policies and procedures manuals from professional associations that are available online. Ideally, I would like to find manuals from a range of associations. To be clear, these are the policies and procedures for governing and managing the associations themselves (not, for instance, government policies or procedures on how to do a process that the association members are interested in doing). I have listed this at $20.00 for the first 10 manuals found that meet my criteria and are presented as requested. I will tip an additional $2 for each one found over 10 as long as it is of the same quality as the examples (you may want to find a couple first to see if you are on track). I will tip up to $100, thus for up to 50 listings beyond the first 10. However, PLEASE find a few as examples first if you want to go for the full 60 so that I may tell you if you are on track. Things that I DO NOT want include: 1. Policy manuals that focus strictly on a single facet of the association (for instance a journal policy manual, human resources policy, or budgeting policy manual) ? I am seeking policies/procedures for the range of association services. 2. Policy manuals from outside the US or Canada ? please stick to US and Canadian examples. 3. Policy manuals that are for small, local, volunteer associations ? I am seeking manuals from large associations/societies that are national or international in scope. 4. Policy manuals that actually are position statements rather than ?how to run the association? manuals. An example of what I don?t want in this area is http://www.apa.org/about/division/cpminternatl.html Examples of what I want, and how I would like them listed include (alphabetically by association name, and including all of the listings together in a final post even if you do them in smaller groups): Group: American Accounting Association Homepage: http://aaahq.org/index.cfm Policy Manual Link: http://aaahq.org/about/manual/manindex.htm Group: American Library Association Homepage: http://www.ala.org/ Policy Manual Link: http://www.ala.org/ala/ourassociation/governingdocs/policymanual/policymanual.htm Thank you! Please do not hesitate to ask questions. |

Hello susank-ga, You wanted diversity...I got you diversity. I stopped at the first dozen or so to get your feedback. If they look like a good set, let me know, and we can see about getting some others for you. If it's not exactly what you need, please let me know before rating this answer...I'm always happy to do some additional work on a question to get you just what you need. The list is below. It includes one or two government groups -- let me know if government is not among the groups you're interested in. Also, there are a ton of large school systems, large state/provincial organizations, and other not-quite-national groups that have Manuals posted. Are these of interest at all? Let me know what you think. Here's the list: ========== ASSOCIATION OF NORTH CAROLINA HEALTH AND SCIENCE LIBRARIES http://www.rtpnet.org/anchasl/policies.html ANCHASL Policy and Procedures Manual ========== Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, Inc. Accreditation Policy and Procedure Manual http://www.abet.org/images/Criteria/A004%2004-05%20Accredition%20Policy%20and%20Procedure%20Manual%2011-19-0%85.pdf ========== American Society of Opthalmic Administrators Certified Ophthalmic Executive Program Policy and Procedure Manual http://www.ascrs.org/certification/COEPOLICY.html ========== Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials - International APCO POLICY MANUAL http://www.apcointl.org/about/documents/APCO_PolicyManual_Compiled.pdf ========== Citizenship and Immigration Canada Citizenship Policy Manual http://www.cic.gc.ca/manuals-guides/english/cp/index.html ========= International Association for Language Learning Technology Policy and Procedure Manual http://iallt.org/official_docs/0602PolicyandProceduresManual.pdf ========== National Association of Collegiate Women Athletic Administrators (NACWAA) Policy and Procedures Manual www.nacwaa.org/images/pdf/policies.pdf ========== National Parole Board NPB Policy Manual http://www.npb-cnlc.gc.ca/infocntr/policym/polman_e.htm ========== National Student Employment Association Policy and Procedures Manual http://nseastudemp.org/about/1.htm ========== NEWFOUNDLAND CLUB OF AMERICA, INC.

Researcher did a great job at honing in on my project to ensure that the answer was accurate. However, the answers were requested in a specific format which, on the second try, still wasn't like the examples provided. I'll need to do a bunch of cut-and-paste (certainly doable, but annoying). |

Hey Susan, Thanks for the feedback and the very generous tip. Sorry about the formatting thing. I guess you wanted the actual words "Group" "Homepage" etc included with each record...somehow that just didn't sink into my brain! In the future, keep in mind that you are always welcome to post additional Requests for Clarification until the answer is exactly as you would like it to be. In fact, if you would like me to do the re-formatting for you, just say the word, and I'm happy to oblige. pafalafa-ga |

Will do. The research was the most important component. I can do the cut and paste. If I was a researcher, by the third request for fixing formatting, I would be ready to shoot the questioner so I give it two tries and then move on if I can indeed fix it myself. Unfortunately, most of my work requires restricted formatting. |
