So it appears that after 244 years of printing volumes, the Encyclopaedia Britannica is going out of print.
It is interesting to see what students' reactions will be to this. I can only imagine very few cases where patrons actually prefer print reference resources these days...especially the nature of encyclopedias and the number of databases available through the Alabama Virtual Library.
Still, it's most certainly the end of an era!
