Vanishing Print Encyclopedias

[Carlton Martz <cmartz@EEE.ORG>]

I spoke with a Grolier rep. last week who said their print Academic
American Ency. as well as the print Britannica are no longer being
published. Is the rush to CD-ROM and online encyclopedias all that great
for children learning to read given all the multimedia distractions on the
electronic versions?  Carl Martz, Librarian Yucaipa High School, Yucaipa CA
