For When You Need A Serious Digital Reference, 2012 Britannica Ultimate Reference DVD!

Wikipedia is, it might not surprise you to learn, not considered a valid reference by the vast majority of those in academia.  Because just anyone can write or edit the articles on Wikipedia, they are often inaccurate or imprecise.  Fortunately, there are other resources that educators consider authoritative, even digital resources that are like Wikipedia.  One of the most comprehensive, authoritative sources students may use as a reference tool is the 2012 Britannica Ultimate Reference DVD!

 

In 2010, the final print version of The Encyclopedia Britannica was published.  For almost two hundred-fifty years, the print version of The Encyclopedia Britannica was considered an authoritative reference tool because its articles were written by experts within any given field, including Nobel laureates.  Starting in 2011, Encyclopaedia Britannica (the parent company that publishes the encyclopedia) began releasing the Britannica Ultimate Reference DVD, a DVD-ROM that replaced the physical encyclopedia with an all-digital one.  The 2012 Britannica Ultimate Reference DVD is the latest updated edition with hundreds of thousands of articles on every possible subject imaginable.

You may play the 2012 Britannica Ultimate Reference DVD in any computer that has a DVD drive or on any Blu-Ray player.  Some of the oldest or most inexpensive DVD players may not possess the memory or processing power (or a sophisticated enough remote control) to operate the DVD.  Once installed, the 2012 Britannica Ultimate Reference DVD provides you with a fully interactive series of articles, as well as a powerful search engine that aids you in finding the topic you want to study.

For those who are concerned about such things, fear not, the quality of the 2012 Britannica Ultimate Reference DVD has not diminished!  While Encyclopaedia Britannica strives to be more environmentally conscientious and accessible to the Internet generation, they have not made their standards more lax.  The articles are still written by experts, professors, and scientists and rigorously fact-checked for accuracy.  Even the photographs that are included with selected articles have a professional quality to them that readers have come to expect from Encyclopaedia Britannica.

In addition to having the standard digital version of the encyclopedia, the 2012 Britannica Ultimate Reference DVD includes the student encyclopedia, elementary encyclopedia, Book of the Year reference for notable events from 1993 through 2009, and two complete dictionaries and thesauri.  As a result, the 2012 Britannica Ultimate Reference DVD is a powerful reference tool for honing your writing style, in addition to providing you with content about which to write!

Great as a gift for the tech-savvy student, the 2012 Britannica Ultimate Reference DVD is a reliable reference tool for students and researchers of all ages!
