A word about Fordham Libraries and 9/11 controversies

The purpose of Fordham Libraries' Research Guides is first and foremost to provide our patrons with access to information sources of value which are reliable, appropriately documented, and balanced on a broad array of topical areas. Given the at times extreme variance in perspectives taken by different stakeholders, September 11 as a Guide topic is much unlike the academic disciplines covered in our other Guides.

Accordingly, this Guide points to published accounts, analyses, and viewpoints which are at times passionately opposed to each other. We present these differing perspectives dispassionately for you, our patrons, to take note of, consider, and judge the merits of for yourselves.
