Government Websites Offline Due to Shutdown
Due to the current government shutdown, many federal government web sites and services are offline. Â As Polk Library is learning, this includes many sites we rely on to provide up-to-date government publications and information. Â This includes census and statistical information, Department of Education databases, Â USGS maps and the digitized content of the Library of Congress. Â Legislative information sites thomas.gov and beta.congress.gov will remain available, however.
The decision to close the sites was often made because non-essential personnel were required to maintain them.  It is an unprecedented phenomenon. The last time the government shut down was in 1995, a time when agencies were far less reliant  on the internet for distributing its information.
