MISSING ENCYCLOPEDIA INFORMATION !!  
Chapter 6 is entitled "Dictionaries and Encyclopedias" ... but doesn't talk about encyclopedias! The entire chapter discusses only dictionaries.

Moreover, encyclopedias aren't given thorough in-depth treatment anywhere in the book. Was the encyclopedia section mistakenly omitted from the 2nd edition? This is a whopping fault for a textbook on reference information sources.
