[Libs-Or] Government shutdown

[Eva Calcagno]

Buzzy,
I found this article online - sounds like some/all of the LOC services will go offline.  I was thinking "well the web servers can operate without people" but I guess that is not necessarily true if some of the services have human responders. Or maybe they just want to make a point.  :)

Hi everyone,

This is probably a question for the government documents folks out there. It seems that the Library of Congress catalog (and presumably their z39.50 connections) will be shutting down tomorrow morning barring some last minute Congressional deal. Does anyone know if the download of documents through the Federal Despository Library Program will be as well?

Cheers!
Buzzy
