If you were discretely pointing at me, I raise my hand in acknowledgement.
We produce Publication Release notices and post them on our web site for the
purpose of alerting clients that new scientific studies are available
(reports, maps and digital data). However, Publication Services Section,
under my guidance, is working on an accessible HTML format instead with PDF
as a secondary format.
