Special Social Explorer Offer During the Government Shutdown

FRIDAY, OCT 04, 2013

The current shutdown in Washington is limiting the access that scholars and researchers have to vital materials, including the US Census website. 

To that end, Oxford University Press and the Social Explorer team will open up access to Social Explorer  the premier US Census demographics website – for the next two weeks. Social Explorer offers users Census data from 1790 to 2010 and American Community Survey data from 2005 to 2012.

For access to Social Explorer, simply email onlinereference@oup.com to request a username and password.
