Not every public speaker is the same. In educational environments, lecterns should take this into account. A well-designed lectern should be easily adjustable, accommodating both tall and short users. With the Slim Line Lectern by Bretford, each presenter can rest easy—moving the platform up and down is simple. This is especialy beneficial in shared classrooms or work spaces, because spending the first minutes of your presentation fumbling with an uncooperative lectern doesn’t make anyone look good.

Height-Adjustable Lectern Promotes Learning

The Slim Line Lectern features two important details. First, it provides an oversized paper platform to hold your materials. If you’ve ever given a lecture, you realize the value of putting your stuff down somewhere. Second, it does not block the speaker; the slim design allows the audience “to clearly see the presenter.” The idea here is to promote interaction and “to invite an open discussion”—this is not the lectern for stuffy Shakespearean scholars who want to talk at you!

Any school or institute will enjoy the versatility of the Slim Line Lectern. Bretford offers a wide range of color choices. Paints, laminates, veneers, and trim are customized by the user “to create your ultimate lectern.” Powder coats from Cardinal to Cabernet and Topaz to Twilight; solid laminates from Pond Green to Putty Beige and Sandcastle to Sandstone; wood laminates from Ash to Aged Cherry and Sugar Maple to Solar Oak—the Slim Line Lectern works with whatever style necessary. And no matter what the individual speaker’s style, “your presentations are supported.”
