Just looked through the Kodak stockhouse catalog at work. The pages
concerning glass plats are dated 1994, but I suspect that this is the most
current. As of that date glass plates were available in TMX, Tech Pan and
other emulsions such as spectrographic, holographic, and short
wave/Radiation.
You can contact Kodak's "Glass Plate Management Team" at (800) 823-4474 and
they can provide order quantities, pricing, turn around information...
Hope this helps, or is at least illuminating.
