I most frequently use and share my Franklin Covey Style Guide. It’s well organized, easy to read and (believe it or not) pretty interesting. My back-up is the IAAP’s Complete Office Handbook (see the first post in this thread); it’s dull and tedious in its presentation but still good information.
Try http://www.theffectiveadmin.com They have a wonderful newsletter for about $21 per year as well as many different tip sheets that you can order for about $5 each (they are available for instant download) or you can subscribe and get everything for about $199 per year. Also you can try http://www.asap.org. It is free and has many free webinars to watch. Another great site is http://www.naesaa.com. They also offer an inexpensive monthly admin newsletter. For books go to amazon.com and type in administrative assistant books. They list many wonderful books for admins. I order all of my books from amazon. Also as mentioned above http://www.officedynamics.com rocks! Joan Burge has 2 must read books as well as a great webinar series that will go on for the next 26 weeks. Good luck!
I got tired of trying to find answers to all my different questions on websites where there are no standards.
The Gregg Reference Manual is the best resource I have ever used. I refer to it all the time.
The Gregg Reference Manual by William A. Sabin has been an invaluable resource for me.
Check out http://www.officedynamics.com This is Joan Burge’s website and she has 2 excellent books along with a dynamic site with lots of info.
Also http://www.deskdemon.com is fabulous. They always have great information.
Both of these sites also have monthly ezines with lots of good stuff.
I highly recommend, if you are not already a member, that you go to http://www.iaap-hq.org/ This is the website for the International Association of Administrative Professionals. They have a lot of resources and membership is very worthwhile! If you are a member and haven’t attended a meeting in a long time now is the time to start going again. If you don’t like the way things are run, join a committee and make the changes. I joined and am now a Certified Administrative Professional (CAP) just one of the certifications that they offer and once you get your certification you are eligible for a pay increase.
