The brief essays Prof. Karin Zipf asked her class to write on September 12th 2001 capture that moment as if in amber. She asked her students to record their feelings about the events of the previous day. Every member of the class did so. She then asked them to donate their papers to the Manuscripts and Rare Books Department of Joyner Library so that they could serve as a record of the event and of their reactions to it. Every member of the class agreed to do so. The Manuscripts and Rare Books Department offered the essays and images of 9/11 as a temporary exhibit last year, on the first anniversary of the attacks; in cooperation with the Digital Initiatives Program of Joyner Library the Department again offers them as a permanent digital exhibit.
