+     "The glossaries package supports acronyms and multiple glossaries, and has
+provision for operation in several languages (using the facilities of either
+Babel or Polyglossia).  New entries are defined to have a name and description
+(and optionally an associated symbol).  Support for multiple languages is
+offered, and plural forms of terms may be specified.  An additional package,
+@code{glossaries-accsupp}, can make use of the @code{accsupp} package
+mechanisms for accessibility support for PDF files containing glossaries.  The
+user may define new glossary styles, and preambles and postambles can be
+specified.  There is provision for loading a database of terms, but only terms
+used in the text will be added to the relevant glossary.
+
+The package uses an indexing program to provide the actual glossary; either
+MakeIndex or Xindy may serve this purpose, and a Perl script is provided to
+serve as interface.  The package supersedes @code{glossary} package (which is
+now obsolete).")
