A visitor looks at the online Nelson Mandela Digital Archive on a computer screen during its launch at the Nelson Mandela foundation in Johannesburg March 27, 2012. Thousands of letters, photographs and documents relating to former South African President Mandela went online on Tuesday in a project to increase access to archives on the life of the global human rights icon. Items including letters Mandela wrote to his family and smuggled out of prison, his Methodist church membership card from about 80 years ago and hand-written diaries have been digitised and laid out in a site designed to look like museum exhibits at archive.nelsonmandela.org.
