Present-day podiums, also referred to as lecterns, are fabricated out of many materials that create a more contemporary look for the modern speaker. Typically modeled in two designs, a triangle truss and a box truss style, these contemporary styles offer a whole new dimension in podiums to enhance any church, conference room or special event. Aluminum truss lectern stands are available in black or silver, and often include cup holders for the speaker, as well as extra shelves for storing books, lecture notes and other reading materials. Many churches and religious establishments are trying to get away from the traditional atmosphere, with the same old wooden lecterns, and are purchasing the contemporary looking, clear podiums. There are newer wooden podiums that are just as effective as the clear acrylic or truss styles. Many wooden podiums also convert from a stand to a desktop model, simply by separating the top part from the mid-section, and then placing it on a desk or counter top.
