The government shutdown has closed a few of the research sites that are useful to those writing papers. So OUP has opened up the doors for everyone to check out their reference sites in the meantime.
Quote:
The current shutdown in Washington is limiting the access that scholars and researchers have to vital materials. To that end, we have opened up access for the next two weeks to three of our online resources: Oxford Reference, American National Biography Online, and the US Census demographics website, Social Explorer.
