National Museum of American History. Soon after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History began collecting objects to document and preserve the material record of this important event in American history.

The immediate collecting priorities focused on the attacks, the response and rescue efforts, and the commemoration that followed. The collection we present on this site represents a work in progress. It embodies the best efforts of staff across the Museum to document and preserve a wide range of stories about September 11. Each object, as material evidence of the attacks and their immediate aftermath, is a piece of a large and complex story. Teachinghistory.org. Truman Library.
