Book World

How much is a world book encyclopedia set worth?
I almost threw out a whole set of encyclopedias today and I decided to see how much it was worth. The World book site says 1000 dollars. But I'm not sure if mine is the exact.
I have a complete set of the world book 75 anniversary edition.
With the incredible access to information afforded by the Internet, encyclopedia are not popular today. Given the speed with which information changes, expandes and updates, encyclopedia become quickly outdated as well, even with the annual updates.
The World Book site would not be well served were it to report that sets of its encyclopedia are worthless.
You might check out Ebay and http://www.abe.com for price comparisons.
There are enough people around who find World Book (or others) nice to have in the house or a nice edition to their home libraries, or for sentimental reasons. But for the most part, they are an anachronism.
I have an extensive reference library for my work. I find these days that I rarely pull the individual books off the shelf. I just do a quick Google and am able to check multiple sources in a couple of minutes.
