Frost Byte, Volume 4, Issue 48

Welcome back from the long holiday weekend! We do hope that everyone had a great time, and if you ate too much, don’t worry! There’s plenty of time before the flurry of Christmas parties to lose that extra 5 pounds.

News

The Library was quiet last week, which enabled Gloria and her trusty student, Kristin, to correct some problems with the catalog prior to the next transfer of data to Biblioline’s Arctic and Antarctic Research database.

Also, the International Polar Year Publications Database is now available at http://www.nisc.com/ipy. Anyone may access it from the internet for free. We hope that this database will provide a vital resource for researchers, students, and the general public on the IPYs, past and present. This is also an excellent resource for publishing your IPY research results.

The Journal of Glaciology #183, v. 53 (2007) is now available on the International Glaciological Society website at http://www.igsoc.org/ and will remain available until such time as Ingenta adds it to their website.
