Rattled survivors will be heard from, and there will be political and military commentary. New analysis will be provided by Bruce Hoffman of the Council on Foreign Relations and Georgetown University, and Alice Greenwald, the president of the National 9/11 Memorial & Museum.

Mr. Alpern, a regular Star contributor, lives in Sag Harbor. Registration is on the library's website.
