Couldn't tell from the question where dgrebb wanted to display the info, so posted another option. I always forget about ref tags. Thanks Tim!

<li>If displaying in a template then you can access the <a href="http://buildwithcraft.com/docs/globals#templating" rel="nofollow">global</a> directly <code>{{ globalSetHandle.fieldHandle }}</code>. </li>

You can, using [reference tags](http://buildwithcraft.com/docs/reference-tags), but unfortunately they only work in plain text fields:

Not sure from your question where you are trying to display the information.

* If displaying in a template then you can access the [global](http://buildwithcraft.com/docs/globals#templating) directly `{{ globalSetHandle.fieldHandle }}`.
* If displaying within another textfield then, as Tim suggested, using [reference tags](http://buildwithcraft.com/docs/reference-tags) is great idea (I would have never thought of that, Tim!)
