The New York Public Library has acquired a massive collection of more than 1,200 hours of video documenting the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, its immediate aftermath, and the subsequent design and construction of the 9/11 Memorial & Museum. The CameraPlanet archive, which consists of footage recorded by more than 130 New Yorkers using consumer cameras, captures the havoc and devastation of the attacks, as well as the resilience of New Yorkers during one of their most challenging moments in history.
