The World Book Encyclopedia is an encyclopedia published in the United States. The company's "mission is to cultivate lifelong learners—because today’s explorers are tomorrow’s leaders." [1] The encyclopedia was designed to cover major areas of knowledge uniformly, but it shows particular strength in scientific, technical, and medical subjects.[2] It is based in Chicago, Illinois. The first edition (1917) contained eight volumes. New editions have since appeared every year except 1920, 1924, and 1932, with major revisions in 1929 (13 volumes), 1947 (19 volumes), 1960 (20 volumes), 1971 (22 volumes), and 1988 (new typeface and page design, and some 10,000 new editorial features).[3] Today, the company claims that World Book is the most up-to-date commercial encyclopedia, with over 2,500 pages updated in 2016 and more than 14,000 pages in total.

World Book also publishes children’s non-fiction and picture books under the Bright Connections Media imprint, and educational development and supplemental instructional resources through Incentive Publications by World Book.
