ACA Journals available at JBU

JBU has access to the following journals published by the American Counseling Association and its divisions and affiliates. Not all divisions are represented on this list. Articles from journals not held by JBU may be requested by interlibrary loan.

ACA Journals not available in full text from JBU Library

The JBU Library is not able to provide full text access to the journal of every division of the ACA. To confirm whether JBU has access to any particular journal, you can search by the title of the publication on our EBSCO Full Text Finder search. As of May 2023, the ACA division journals listed below are not available in full text from JBU. These links will take you to the publisher's websites for these journals. If you need the full text of a specific article from one of these publications, you will probably need to place an interlibrary loan request for the article that you need.

Although we do not have full text access to these specific journals, we do have extensive coverage of the practice areas represented in these journals from other peer reviewed scholarly publications. Use APA PsycInfo to explore articles that are available in our databases.
