Different glaciers are behaving differently. Today, some are gaining mass (ice), while most are losing it. At what point this became the case globally, it is difficult to say. I would guess 50-100 years ago the majority of worldwide glaciers were in net mass loss. Remember though that it is not just broad climatological forces that control glacial melt.
