latest reference works, including Bookshelf Internet Directory 96.

Tony Chor, a 1995-1998 Microsoft Lead Program Manager for Bookshelf,
said the difference between Bookshelf and Encarta is that Bookshelf is
a set of reference books targeted at writers. Encarta is a dedicated
encyclopedia targeting students, with many more and longer articles
than the concise version in Bookshelf.
