Encyclopaedia Britannica is experimenting with user generated posts on its' website. In reading the Library Link of the Day website, I found a link to a Wired Magzine article and the Britannica blog post on their beta user generated content at http://www.britannica.com/bps/home. So far, I could not find the beta product content anywhere on the Public Library Edition of Encyclopaedia Britannica. That does not say someday it might be adding content just like the On Demand 5 product. This appears to be a work in progress. Note: graphics credit to Britannica Blog Post
