Title A name given to the resource Library of Congress Stories Description An account of the resource A collection of more than 200 user-submitted stories gathered from the Library of Congress's "Witness and Response" exhibition staged in 2002. LC Story LC Story: Story Where were you on September 11, 2001 when you heard the news? (Please share your experience of learning of the events and what you did afterwards.) I was in my dorm room, at college. I had just gotten out of class and I was waiting around until my next one started. I didn't have a TV in the room - my roommate and I had decided not to get one. The girl across the hall walked in and started talking about it. I thought it was a movie or something at first, I mean, I didn't think that it could be real. I ended up going over to her room to watch. LC Story: Memory What is your strongest memory of that day? I have two. The first is when I received the news. The second was seeing the second (south?) tower collapse, while watching the news of the event. LC Story: Affects How do you perceive that the events of September 11, 2001 have affected this country and/or you personally? I think it shocked the nation into realizing that we're not as invulnerable as we think. This attack was here, in a well-known place, early in the day. The sites that were hit - the Twin Towers, the Pentagon - were not just buildings that only a few people were aware of prior to the event. These buildings were more than just buildings. They were symbols. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
