Abstract

Describes the development of Encarta: a multimedia CD-ROM based encyclopaedia database, designed to work with the Microsoft Windows 3.1 operating system, and based on the text of the 29 volume Funk and Wagnalls New Encyclopedia. Encarta contains over 14.000 media elements: including more than 5.000 photographs, scores of illustrations, maps and over 100 animations. Many computer science and pop culture articles have been added to the original text. A major feature is the inclusion of over 7 hours of high quality 16 bit sound with examples of music from around the world, foreign language samples, nature and wild animal sounds, literary readings and speeches, and jazz and classical music samples. For a thorough review of this database see the review article in this issue: CD-ROM world 8(1993) no.6, S.51-55
