Subject: LOCKSS-USDOCS and the federal govt shutdown
Date: Wed, 9 Oct 2013 11:18:00 -0700
From: James Jacobs <[log in to unmask]>


Hi all,

Just thought I'd give this group a heads-up about what's going on with
LOCKSS-USDOCS (http://lockss-usdocs.stanford.edu) and the govt shutdown.
I talked with Mary Alice Baish as soon as I heard about the possibility
of a shutdown. She basically told me the same thing as what was in the
GPO the press release -- that during the shutdown, FDsys would remain
online and accessible. Because of this, we did not release the
LOCKSS-USDOCS cache (which contains all of the FDsys collections to
date). In the event that FDsys were to be unavailable for an extended
period of time, the LOCKSS-USDOCS cache would of course be made available.

Please let me know if you have any questions. We're always looking for
new LOCKSS-USDOCS partners -- the more the merrier! -- so please let me
know if your library would be interested in participating.

best,

James
