I'm looking for reviews/recommendations from librarians who either
subscribe to Compton's Encyclopedia Online OR have knowledge of Compton's
CD versions. I work in a K-12 school complex which separates the schools
(and libraries) administratively into a K-6 and 7-12 .  Compton's Online
offers a building site license for an annual fee of $499 which may be cost
effective for K-12 student access via our Internet network.
My questions:  1) Have you tried Compton's Online?  2) Is Compton's more
"elementary" than World Book Encyclopedia (which many of our 7-12 students
use, print versions and CD)?

I'll post a HIT if I get sufficient feedback.
