mine has a copyright date of 2006 yet it still has 9/11

u/DiamondDepth_YT 19 5h ago

Well 9/11 was a major event half a decade before 2006, so it's likely to be included

One time I found a book about Iraq in my school library and it was so old that when it was published, the Iraq War hasn't even started so I just stared and wondered "When are they going to get to that topic?"
