There are notes on each agencies website detailing the shutdown.

Subject: [WEB4LIB] Federal government shutdown: keeping track?

Is anyone out there keeping track of information resources affected by the federal government shutdown?  I'd like to pass along some information to library users, but am not sure myself, though I did figure out there are degrees of availability: NCJRS and Bureau of Justice Statistics seem to be up (maybe due to being part of law enforcement?) while PubMed and some of the congressional / regulatory sites are available (but with limited support and updating), and finally others (ERIC, NOAA) seem to be down.

I know there are a lot of news sites that are tracking what services are available, but I'm looking for something focused on the research and information infrastructure.  Any libraries or library associations doing that?  Maybe a wiki or something we can all contribute to?

Thanks,
