There aren't a lot of options as I understand it.  (Yes, I've lived in
Juneau for more than three years now and I still haven't gotten to Glacier
Bay yet......too many other cool places to explore - I'll get over there
eventually).  So many trips, so little time!!  There is a National Park
concession actually operating in Gustavus called Glacier Bay Kayaks
(http://www.he.net/~kayakak/).  There's also another company in Gustavus
called Sea Otter Kayaks (http://www.he.net/~seaotter/).

A quick perusal of the Gustavus phone listings doesn't show anything else
(it's only a little over two pages<grin>).

The best book I've seen on the area is "Adventure Kayaking - Trips in
Glacier Bay" by Don Skillman.  ISBN - 089997225X.  I have a copy on my
bookshelf and highly recommend it.

Good luck with your trip planning!  If you (or anyone else) wants more info
about paddling, travel, access, weather, etc. regarding Southeast Alaska
please feel free to contact me off-list.
