    Abstract
    Reviews Encyclopedia Britannica Online ($80) from Britannica, and Encarta Concise Encyclopedia (free) from Microsoft. Britannica has more than 12.000 illustrations of high quality, excellent maps, and 60 multimedia elements including sound, video, and animation. It could be improved by enabling illustrations to be used as filtering criteria for searches, and the QuickTime multimedia format is too slow for the content. Encarta has 16.000 articles, 1.678 photographs, 408 dynamic maps, and a wealth of other features. There are no audio clips, collages, virtual tours, or panoramic views, and check boxes would be more convenient than radio buttons in the interface. Includes 2 screen displays

    Abstract
    Reviews 4 CD-ROM encyclopedias: Encyclopaedia Britannica CD 98 Multimedia Edition; Compton's Interactive Encyclopedia 1998; Microsoft Encarta 98 Encyclopedia; and Grolier Multimedia Encyclopedia 1998. Each of the 4 titles has its audience and while no single CD-ROM encyclopedia is perfect, some perform better at specific tasks than others. Britannica has the content with its academic, rich textual information. Compton's is richest in variety and games to help children learn and has a perticularly good interactive atlas. Encarta is beautiful designed and would be the choice for adolescents and young adults. Grolier is more affordable than the other titles and though inferior in images to Encarta has a greater depth of content
