New initiative for Encyclopedia Britannica

Encyclopaedia Britannica is about to launch a new initiative... The main thrust of this initiative is to promote greater participation by both expert contributors and readers. Both groups will be invited to play a larger role in expanding, improving, and maintaining the information we publish on the Web under the Encyclopaedia Britannica name as well as in sharing content they create with other Britannica visitors. A complete redesign, editing tools, and incentive programs will give expert contributors and users the means to take part in the further improvement of Encyclopaedia Britannica and in the creation and publication of their own work.
