E - Encyclopedia - Books vs Internet
But it is true, that the sales of generic encyclopedias have decreased for a small percentage. Lately I have been noticing that the interest for different encyclopedias has increased again. This is due to the fact, that internet offers a variety of different web pages, whose main interest is not to give to the user information they desire, but to make money with advertisements.
So what the users encounter?
Try to imagine your 10 year old child, who has a task to find the information for his project about the brain on internet. When you type for example in Google the word "brain", first 150 hits represent different "PhD dissertation" with a content that has nothing to do with the topic your child is interested in. Until the child finds appropriate information, a lot of precious time can be lost.
A while ago a common project has been launched by Google as the biggest "search engine" and Dorling Kindersley as one of the biggest publishers in the world. It has been named "E-encyclopedia".
E-encyclopedia means, you have extremely attractive encyclopedia with pictures at the one side and at the other a "search engine" that encompasses more than 1000 different web pages. Put differently this means that everything contained in a book is to be found on the internet as well. If your child needs a picture of a brain, it can be accessed with only two mouse clicks. And the same is for any other text that might be needed. Children are faster this way and what's more important they save time which can be used for something else.E-encyclopedia describes different topics, such as nature, human body, science, animals, history and more. It has 500 pages and each page has a password you need to type in the web portal. Once you type in the password, 6 different pages become available, each of them consisting different pictures and more.I am presenting E-encyclopedia on my web page as well, which you can access at the following address; http://www.ediesbookstore.com/encyclopedia.php
