數千份曼德拉先生的手稿、照片和錄像已被數碼化，並放置網上, 成為南非第一任黑人總統曼德拉先生的大回顧。
Thousands of handwritten documents, photographs and videos of Nelson Mandela have been digitised and placed online in a massive archive of the life of South Africa’s first black president.
這個數碼檔案館由納爾遜·曼德拉的記憶中心 (Nelson Mandela Centre of Memory) 和互聯網巨頭谷歌 (Google) 攜手建立，並將文件轉化為一個可被搜索的珍藏，同時也可以通過7個 「網上展覽平台」 瀏覽文件。
從最古老的文件 – 曼德拉先生於1929年循道衛理教會的會員卡，以至他在關於結束種族隔離制度的會談中的手寫筆記, 一一 都輯錄歸檔。
「任何人在任何地方都可以免費閱讀當中內容。」 記憶中心 (Centre of Memory) 的 哈里斯·凡爾納(Verne Harris) 強調項目的獨立性, 內容挑選上均由記憶中心主導。 很多本來被收藏在記憶中心的文件一直甚少向公眾提供， 現在則可以透過 archive.nelsonmandela.org 讓公眾對曼德拉先生的一生有更多的認識。
在曼德拉數碼藏館裡，任何人都可以翻閱他的監獄生涯，年輕時的珍貴照片，與及一些由其他人士講述 曼德拉先生的事跡的影片。
The digital archive was created by the Nelson Mandela Centre of Memory and internet giant Google, which transformed the documents into a searchable collection that can also be browsed through seven online “exhibits”.
It includes everything from his Methodist Church membership cards from 1929 — the oldest documents in the archive — to his handwritten notes taken during the talks to end apartheid.
“Everyone, everywhere enjoys access to its contents free of charge,” said Verne Harris, of the Centre of Memory, who emphasised the project’s independence from its benefactor Google.
Many of the documents — which can now be seen at archive.nelsonmandela.org — are housed at the Centre of Memory, where they have been carefully catalogued and stored but rarely available to the public.
With the Nelson Mandela Digital Archive, anyone can flip through his desk calendars from his years in the apartheid prison on Robben Island, see rare photos of him as a young man, and find videos of luminaries like Desmond Tutu as well as ordinary South Africans speaking about their experiences with him.
