Photographers can still upload their photographs for copyright, however no orders will be processed until the U.S. Government re-opens for “business”.
An alert on the Copyright.gov website states, “The U.S. Copyright Office is closed, and www.copyright.gov is not available due to the federal government shutdown effective 12:01 am ET, Tuesday, October 1, 2013. The Public Information Office and the Technical Support Desk of the Copyright Office are also closed.
