Target: online & print encyclopedias

[Maryalice Anderson <maryalic@WMS.LUMINET.NET>]

I am looking for some input  on a couple questions pertaining to the use of
encyclopedias.  Have you done usage studies? What do you see happening?
What are changing uses of encyclpedias at all age levels?

Will media centers continue to purhcase both print and online versions of
encyclopoedias in 5 years? in 10 years?  Do you see an interest in home use
of online encyclopedias  such as World Book?

TIA.
