On Sept. 8, 2001, the Library welcomed first lady Laura Bush, 60 authors and 30,000 visitors to the first National Book Festival to celebrate books and reading. The book festival is described in the report and illustrated with a picture portfolio highlighting the day’s events. The Library responded to the tragic events of September 11 by increasing physical and computer security, providing Congress with timely information on terrorism and related topics, and by launching several projects to collect and preserve materials in all formats that document the attacks and the nation’s response to them. The material is the subject of a Library exhibition on display through Nov. 2 in the North Gallery of the Thomas Jefferson Building’s Great Hall. The Library’s yearlong bicentennial celebration concluded with symposia, concerts and other activities that culminated with the sealing of a time capsule.
