Thirteen years ago terrorists attacked the East Coast cities of New York and Washington, D.C. Thousands of people died.
The Argus and other IWU publications from those months are available, digitally, through the Tate Archives & Special Collections.
On the 10 year anniversary, the New York Public Library called for us to look back and remember; now, think about where we were and where we are now.
The following resources are taken directly from the NYPL’s blog.
