Google is bringing a world of magic artefacts into the digital space.

We went to check it out back in October and we left bitterly disappointed that magic really truly doesn't exist -- but the exhibition itself was fantastic.
The physical exhibition is due to close February 28, but in partnership with Google Arts & Culture, the British Library has now made it accessible online. Ten original exhibits in six languages -- English, Spanish, French, German, Hindi and Brazilian Portuguese -- are now available to peruse using the dark magic that is Google.
The online exhibit is absolutely teeming with images, interviews, and articles. It also features a few interactive touches -- you can examine the length of the Ripley Scroll, a 6-metre-long 16th century document that contains the recipe for the philosopher's stone.
Okay seems like a simple enough recipe...Credit: british library/google arts & cultureAmong the artefacts through which you can scour are some from the master herself. J.K. Rowling's original pitch letter and a preliminary sketch she did of the Hogwarts grounds are both available.

So get cracking on those magic classes, muggles! There's literally no excuse not to now that it's on Google.
