» A Slice of German Wikipedia to Be Captured on Paper - New York Times
When someone decides to look something up in Wikipedia, a computer is typically involved. But that may well change.
In Germany, a printed collection of Wikipedia articles is being produced for the first time by a major publisher, Bertelsmann.
The book, “The One-Volume Wikipedia Encyclopedia,” which will go on sale in September for 19.95 euros (almost $32), is an odd experiment in reverse publishing.
This seems to defeat the very purpose of Wikipedia. Although it is kind of cheap for an encyclopedia at $32.
