A Brief History of the VISTAS Project
VISTAS
is an innovative publication produced for ACA by Counseling Outfitters, LLC (Garry R. Walz and Jeanne C. Bleuer) as a means of capturing
the ideas, information, and experiences generated by the annual
ACA conventions. The first edition, containing 33 articles related
to the 2004 ACA Convention, was produced in both a print and
CD format. In 2005, only a print version containing 71 articles
was published.
In 2006, a print version containing 52 articles was published;
and an online database of those articles plus 60 additional
convention-related articles was developed. In 2007, 30 articles were added to the online database, but no print version was produced. To celebrate its fifth year in 2008, a special anniversary publication was produced that included 30 of the 64 articles selected for inclusion in VISTAS Online. In 2009, a print version containing 30 articles was published; and an additional 58 articles and presentations from ACA, NCDA, and ACES were added to the online collection.
