Thought I should update User Services about this.

Links to electronic government documents may not be functioning for awhile. On August 24th "the PURL server suffered a significant hardware failure." According to GPO no data has been lost, but restoring the system is taking time.

On a related note, GPO has been working toward migrating from GPO Access to FDsys a more modern system (from what I understand.) Here is a link to FDsys http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/search/home.action
