Dear GLIMS colleagues:Thank you to all for the YEARS and YEARS of work and patience that went into the GLIMS book. It may seem a minor miracle long in waiting (or long forgotten as a possibility!), but the electronic version of the GLIMS book was published yesterday. The printing is supposed to take place less than 15 days later. We will defer media outreach until the hard copy comes out. If you have been working with me on the GLIMS Highlights, just be patient a short while longer. If you have not been working with me, you may still feel free to undertake your own separate media outreach if you are an author, but please respect the timing of the overall media outreach anticipated for day of hard-copy publication. That is, please strictly stipulate an embargo if you have any preliminary media contact regarding the book and findings in it.--Jeff Jeffrey S.
