| | The 1995 Grolier Multimedia Encyclopedia - PC Review - Coming Soon Magazine |
 | | This encyclopedia is not just a collection of graphic and sound files, but also a reference tool where you will be able to find an article about nearly anything or at least, a reference about it. | | | Encyclopedias have always fascinated me because of the huge amount of data that they gather in what we call knowledge. | | | "The 1995 Grolier Multimedia Encyclopedia" is by far the best multimedia encyclopedia ever created on a computer. |

| | Review: 1999 Grolier Multimedia Encyclopedia iMac Deluxe Edition |
| | Grolier's Guided Tours, unlike those of Encarta's that offered plenty of video and multiple 360 degree panoramas of a location, are little more than a compilation of similar information into one subject header. | | | With Microsoft's recent announcement that Encarta 98 would be the last Mac version of their popular encyclopedia, Mac users now have even fewer options to choose from in the once saturated genre of multimedia encyclopedias. | | | The online features of the 1999 Grolier iMac Deluxe Edition extend to within articles where web links, to Grolier's online New Book of Knowledge and Encyclopedia Americana are provided for many of the articles. |

| | Like most CD-ROM encyclopedias, Grolier is broad but not extremely deep in its coverage. | | | When it's time to produce a report, Grolier lets you print or save articles to disk (it supports appending, so you can build one file from many sources). | | | And, since it's easy to forget where you found information, you can set bookmarks. |

| | Interest levels are kept high for students because they have at their fingertips an exciting, interactive means of satisfying their curiosity and increasing their understanding and knowledge. | | | My students were not able to access their information independently, but they were able to understand and follow the format well enough to guide me to the desired information. | | | The varied methods of presentation make integrating instruction with technology much less intimidating and more attractive for even the less "computer literate" teacher. |
