"Bottom Line: Given the nominal difference in cost between print alone and adding an online subscription... I can't imagine why any library would not opt to give its users greater, enhanced access to valuable information via the web product. Highly recommended.."
"Review of The World of Learning Online
-"Library Journal, March 15, 2003
"A valuable reference tool in both formats... Smaller public and academic institutions with tight budgets will definitely want to consider the online version, which gives more dollar-for-dollar value and increased access. Larger institutions will want to consider both formats, since it is a very reasonably priced package. "The World of Learning Online is a welcome addition to electronic reference."
