author talk with Haben Girma, the author of Haben: The
Deafblind Woman Who Conquered Harvard Law. She will share the
insights she gained through the process of getting to, and
graduating from, one of the most prestigious law schools in
the country. The book, number DB 96188, can be found on NLS
BARD. This author’s talk will take place <span dir="ltr"
style="text-decoration: underline;">on Monday, August 14,
2023, at 7 pm</span>. All are invited to attend. Please
share this invite with your chapters and affiliates. <o:p></o:p></p>

June meeting where we had an excellent presentation about the
use of Robert’s Rules of Order. Denise Avant was our main
presenter, and Denise Brown and Suzanne Turner shared great
insights about how they use Robert’s Rules to facilitate
effective meetings. Other chapter leaders chimed in with
excellent pointers and questions, which made the experience
even richer. We did not record this meeting but hope to do it
again at a chapter or affiliate meeting where it could be
recorded. In the meantime, there is a book on NLS BARD
entitled Robert’s Rules in Plain English, book number 53540,
that may provide helpful insight into the subject for those
who are looking for resources.<o:p></o:p></p>
