ALEXANDRIA, Va. — The American Geosciences Institute (AGI) is pleased to announce the release of "The Geotimes Collection: 60 Years of Geoscience." Now you can have over 60 years' worth of the geosciences at your fingertips with this digital collection containing every issue of Geotimes since its debut in 1956 all the way through the 2017 issues of EARTH.

 

For decades, Geotimes, which became EARTH in September 2008, has been the magazine of record for the geoscience community, informing and educating about recent discoveries, trends and events affecting our planet. This collection provides a fascinating window into the development of the geosciences from the articles and commentaries to the classic cartoons and ads that reflect a different time. You also get a glimpse into AGI's early history and the geoscience profession's growth into what it is today.
