Literature used in Meetings
SLAA Annual Business Meeting/Conference (ABC/M) and the Board of Trustees (BOT) have provided detailed guidance, on a number of occasions, about literature used in meetings
This guidance has been summarised, by Intergroup, into the following 5 categories, to help guide meetings on what literature to use in meetings.
- Conference Approved Literature – “literature, approved by the Delegates at an Annual Business Meeting (or equivalent) by a properly constituted Conference that has passed through the Appendix I process, and has been approved by the FWS Board of Trustees qualifies as Conference-approved Literature.”
- Draft literature – literature that has been prepared for consideration of the ABC/M. Draft literature may have never been submitted, been sent for further amendments, deferred or rejected. Such literature is usually produced as a PDF and marked as Draft and copyrighted by FWS. Draft Literature is not considered “outside literature”.
- The Journal – As a periodical, the Journal has been approved by the ABM. However each issue has not been conference approved. Each issue is overseen by the Conference Journal Committee. Use of the Journal in meetings is encouraged.
- Recommended reading – the SLAA Basic Text (pages 66-67) recommends reading the Alcoholics Anonymous Big Book and the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. These publications are not considered “outside literature”.
- Outside literature – all other literature – books, pamphlets, websites, podcast transcripts, periodicals etc. Use of “outside literature” is not encouraged by FWS, the ABC/M nor the Board of Trustees (BOT). If any group chooses to use “outside literature,” it ought to be clearly defined as such.
