[LM_NET] Target: The Usborne Internet-Linked Encyclopedia

[Karen Walstein <mets53@COMCAST.NET>]

Hi Group,
Well it's been one day of school and the powers that be have already started 
making decisions that don't make sense.  We are no longer allowed to buy 
traditional encyclopedias such as World Book.  Instead, the have purchase 
The Usborne Internet-Linked Encyclopedia of World Geography, World, History 
and Science.  Does anyone else use these resources?  What are your thoughts? 
I fail to see how this is a superior product to an encyclopedia but I'm open 
to being convinced.

Thanks,
