Dear All,

[sorry for cross-postings]

Beginning Friday and continuing through the weekend, LC will perform major system maintenance.  All LC systems and websites will be taken offline during this time.  This includes ID.LOC.GOV as well as LOC metadata standards and schema sites.
See http://www.loc.gov/today/pr/2015/15-A02.html .

 Maintenance is scheduled to begin Friday 28 at 5PM EDT and to be completed by Monday 30 August at 6:00AM EDT.

We hope service to ID.LOC.GOV will be restored sooner than the closing of the scheduled maintenance window.  

Sorry for the inconvenience.
Nate
