The Library of Congress has put recollections of 9/11 online. More than 170 audio and video interviews, 40 hours of memories, with photos, drawings, written narratives and poems. They were culled from more than 400 recordings and 421 items of graphic material collected from 27 states. The project is modeled after a similar project the Library of Congress launched on December 8, 1941 -- the day after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The two collections are part of the Library's "American Memory" section.
This project is in addition to the September 11 Digital Archive Project, the Library's first major aquisition of 9/11 materials. My personal experiences as a reporter on Capitol Hill that day are included in that collection. (CNN)
