SPRINGFIELD -- If you are a Lincoln enthusiast but can't find time to get to the museum, there is a new website just for you. It makes the complete Lincoln collection available to you at home.

Staff are making digital copies of everything for the site. It is not just pictures and documents though. You can also see 3D versions of things like Lincoln's tophat.

The museum says this way you can learn all about Lincoln even if you are halfway across the globe. New items will be added to the site all the time.
