Instead, they will be releasing a set of experimental estimates from the 1-year data. They have created several resources to help data users prepare for this change: * A press kit<https://www.census.gov/newsroom/press-kits/2021/impact-pandemic-2020… includes a PDF version of yesterday's webinar, background materials explaining what experimental data products are, and information about the Census Bureau’s statistical quality standards. A recording of the webinar should be available by late Monday. * A revised 2020 ACS release schedule<https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/news/data-releases/… includes the complete schedule with new planned release dates. * The ACS Resource Hub<https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/library/flyers/resource-… flyer and 2020 ACS 1-Year Estimates: What You Need to Know<https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/library/flyers/flow-cha… flyer provide more information.
