A Small Selection of 9/11 Exhibits and Collections

**September 11, 2002**
I've prepared a small compilation of 9/11 and 9/11 Anniversary resources for the VAS&ND today. If you're looking for additional material, please visit the large and important compilations prepared by the Librarians' Index to the Internet and the News Division of the Special Libraries Association. *Today, the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American History will open "Bearing Witness to History". From the site, "The temporary exhibition will contain artifacts, images and personal stories that all bear witness to the events of Sept. 11. The exhibition will share with the public some of the objects the museum has collected to document the events and will give visitors a place to remember and reflect on them." A companion web site will be available at: http://americanhistory.si.edu/september11. "The Web site will focus on the museum's collecting efforts to document the events of Sept. 11 and will include personal interviews with curators." - A Brief Review of Events in Each State (via AP) - The September 11th Archive from the Internet Archive - *The September 11th Digital Archive from George Mason University - *Here is New York From the site, "Here is New York is not a conventional gallery show. It is something new, a show tailored to the nature of the event, and to the response it has elicited. The exhibition is subtitled "A Democracy of Photographs" because anyone and everyone who has taken pictures relating to the tragedy is invited to bring or ftp their images to the gallery, where they will be digitally scanned, archivally printed and displayed on the walls alongside the work of top photojournalists and other professional photographers." - The Sonic Memorial Project "Shortly after September 11, NPR's Lost & Found Sound brought together independent radio producers, new media producers, artists, historians, and listeners from across the country to collect and preserve 'sound memories' of the World Trade Center, its neighborhood, and the events of 9/11." - * Resources from The Museum of the City of New York - * Running Toward Danger: Stories Behind the Breaking News of 9/11 From the Newseum - * An Online Memorial from the NY State Museum -- * Screenshot Archive of Online News Sites From Interactive Publishing GmbH - * A Selection of Newspaper Front Pages from 9/12/2001 From the Newseum - *Direct Links to Special Commemorative Reports and Sections From Major News Organizations Associated Press - BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) - C-SPAN Includes searchable video archive of all C-SPAN 9/11 related programming since 9/11/2001. - CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) - CNN - Fox News - The Globe and Mail and CTV - The Guardian - MSNBC - National Public Radio Newsday - Newsweek - The New York Daily News - The New York Times See Also: NYT Portraits of Grief - The New York Post - Philadelphia Inquirer - Time - The Times (London) - USA Today - U.S. News and World Report - Voice of America - The Wall Street Journal Subscription is NOT required. - The Washington Post See Also: Keyword Search Full-Text of All Coverage Since 9/11/2001 - WNYC (Public Radio Station in New York)
