    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
    Compares electronic versions of Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary and Thesaurus. Discusses the CD-ROM version, the WWWebster online version (http://www.m-w.com), the Encyclopedia Britannica version available on http://www.eb.com and the AOL version. Concludes that the CD-ROM version is the best, but that the online versions have their value under certain circumstances
