The PGI Geology Standard, irrepressible e-newsletter of PGI, is published several times a year depending on the number of articles contributed (when the glass is full, we drink). It contains timely and informative articles available nowhere else in the world! PDF files of back issues are free on our website, but the current issue is distributed by email solely to paid-up PGI members. See membership page.

The PGI Geology Standard depends on articles from PGI members, especially from members of the Board of Directors, and from friends, colleagues, associates, and anyone else with a hankering to write something of interest to Indiana geologists. Please consider contributing an article yourself!
