News from BGS

A couple of quick announcements to coincide with our 175th Anniversary Science Symposium at the Royal Institution.
Earthwise
A bumper new edition of Earthwise Magazine will be published on Tuesday 28 September. UK government austerity measures mean that, along with many other public sector organisations, we need to make some savings. So until further notice we won't be printing Earthwise magazine. We hope to publish a print edition in the future, but in the meantime you can read Earthwise online.
iGeology
iGeology is a new free iPhone App that lets you take a geological map of Britain with you wherever you go to help you learn about the rocks beneath your feet. And with the phone's GPS, you'll know exactly where you are. From early 2011 Android smartphone users will also be able to use iGeology.
