University Libraries: Federal Data and Website Resources

University Libraries has created a new resource available to Lobo researchers. They have identified alternative archives for some public, federal data resources that may have been disrupted or paused during the administrative transition. 

These resources have been compiled into a library guide created for the purpose of providing researchers access to these data sets. UNM librarians will continue to update as more information becomes available. Please contact Jon Wheeler libgradfac@unm.edu if you know of additional data or website archives our libraries can add to the list.
