Encyclopaedia Britannica to stop printing

After 244 years, the Encyclopaedia Britannica is going out of print. In future, in an acknowledgment of the realities of the digital age - and of competition from the website Wikipedia - Encyclopaedia Britannica will focus primarily on its online encyclopedias and educational curriculum for schools. The last print version is the 32-volume 2010 edition.

Tag for this post: “Encyclopaedia Britannica Stop” “Encyclopaedia Britannica Collapse” “End of Encyclopaedia Britannica” “Encyclopaedia Britannica Died” “Encyclopaedia Britannica Expire” "Encyclopaedia Britannica Ceases Publication"

Thanx Badan Barman, for sharing the latest info. We are more adaptable with online media...so no one has so much time 2 go a Library in their busy work schedule & refer a print version of such encyclopaedia....So its gud tht they r looking for online... Hope for good....

It’s wrong step if it goes only to online edition, as still more than half of Globe population are computer illiterates, this step by Britannica will increase the gap between Information haves & Information have-nots much more.

Encyclopaedia Britannica to end print editions

It would be unforgotten encyclopedia for ever. Thanks to Britannica for serving so many years, but change is definite and only truth.
