publications from the Association of Children's Prosthetic & Orthotic Clinics

re:
ICIB Inter-Clinic Information Bulletin
JACPOC Journal of the Association of Children's Prosthetic & Orthotic Clinics
ACPOC News

All issues of all of these publications are available free online at: http://www.acpoc.org/library

Their website states
"Beginning in 1961, ACPOC published a journal called the Inter-Clinic Information Bulletin (ICIB). In 1985, the name was changed to the Journal of the Association of Children's Prosthetic & Orthotic Clinics (JACPOC). Publication of this journal ended in 1994, and was replaced with ACPOC News.

All clinical articles from these newsletters and journals dating back to 1976 have been digitized and are available here. The years prior to 1976 will be posted as they are completed."

Joint Commission journals

7-9-07: today our online access to The Source seems to have dropped out except for June 2007-
I have written them to check on it.

1-8-07: online access is now provided by another provider. I am working to get them all reactivated and then updated on the website. We have subscriptions to Environment of Care News, Joint Commission Benchmark, Perspectives, Perspectives on Patient Safety and The Source. To reach Benchmark back through 2000; to reach Environment of Care News back through 2000; to reach Perspectives back through 2000; to reach The Source back through 2003; to reach Perspectives on Patient Safety, back through 2005 hopefully today.

The American Journal of Orthopedics now offers some content online to all subscribers at
