[WEB4LIB] Encyclopedia Britannica

["Rodrigue, Réal"]

Hi.

Consultation of Encyclopaedia Britannica is not free anymore. There is a
free trial period not exceeding 30 consecutive days. But after that, one has
to subscribe for a fee of US $5 a month. There are possibilities for
educational site licenses. See http://www.eb.com/

Hello:

Has anyone else noticed that the link to the free web version of
Encyclopedia Britannica is now asking for a subscription username and
id.  The link I am using is the one that was posted on web4lib about a
month ago during the discussion of the new free EB service.
http://search.eb.com/

Has the free version been discontinued or has the url changed?

Thanks.

Susan
