Oh hells yes. Where can I buy a series of

I think we're writing it.
Oh pfft, I mean a series of specialist encyclopedias THAT IS NOT
WIKIPEDIA! :)
The first step would be finding a list of titles (this one is pulled
from my library's search results):
* The Encyclopedia Americana
* Encyclopedia and dictionary of medicine and nursing
* Encyclopedia Canadiana
* Gakugei hyakka jiten = Encyclopedia epoca
* Encyclopedia for snare drum
* Encyclopaedia Judaica year book
* Encyclopedia Mensuelle d'Outre-Mer
* Encyclopedia mythica
* Encyclopedia of 20th-century architecture
* Encyclopedia of 20th-century journalists
* Encyclopedia of 20th century photography
* Encyclopedia of 20th century warfare
* Encyclopedia of acoustics
* Encyclopedia of actuarial science
* Encyclopedia of advertising
* MacDonald's encyclopedia of Africa
* Encyclopedia of African history and culture
* Encyclopedia of agricultural science
* Encyclopedia of American associations
* Encyclopedia of American biography
... then go to Amazon, eBay, etc. and see if you can get a copy.
Alternatively, borrow one from a library...
