    Britannica vs Wikipedia Encyclopaedia Britannica is the oldest English language encyclopedia still in print, first published in 1768. It aims to educate adults and is written by experts. In contrast, Wikipedia was launched in 2001 as a free, multilingual, open content online encyclopedia project that allows anyone to author and edit articles. While Britannica was historically the leading encyclopedia, its sales declined in the 1990s due to high costs and competition from products like Encarta. The rise of Wikipedia further eroded Britannica's market share as it offered a freely accessible alternative with a rapidly growing collection of crowdsourced articles.
