In-depth Special: September 11 A Memorial
CNN has established this site as a memorial to those who died
in 9/11. It will serve as an evolving record of those who
died and a place for readers to build a living memorial for
them. Personal information accompanying the individual records
comes from CNN reports, newspaper obituaries and information
submitted by friends and family. The photos were submitted
to CNN by friends or family of the victims or used with permission
from media partners as noted on each photo.
The September
11 Digital Archive uses electronic media to collect,
preserve, and present the history of the September 11, 2001
attacks in New York, Virginia, and Pennsylvania and the public
responses to them. It will contribute to the on-going effort
by historians and archivists to record and preserve the record
of 9/11 by: collecting first-hand accounts of the 9/11 attacks
and the aftermath (especially voices currently under-represented
on the web), collecting and archiving emails and digital images
growing out of these events, organizing and annotating the
most important web-based resources on the subject, and developing
materials to contextualize and teach about the events.
