Einstein online

An online archive launched this week is bringing the papers of Albert 
Einstein into the public domain.

Now anyone interested in the Nobel Prize winning scientist, who came up 
with the theory of relativity at the tender age of 26, can search 
through a massive database of approximately 43,000 Einstein-related 
documents.

A travel diary, scientific manuscripts, and even an example from one of 
his lecture notebooks are displayed in a 'Gallery' section on the site.

The site is a collaboration between the Hebrew University's Albert 
Einstein Archives, the Information Technology and Photo-Reprography 
Departments of the Jewish National and University Library (JNUL), and 
the Einstein Papers Project at the California Institute of Technology in 
Pasadena.
