CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- The West Virginia Encyclopedia now is available worldwide - on the worldwide Web, that is.


The West Virginia Humanities Council on Monday officially kicked off the online version of the 2,200-article encyclopedia that first was published in 2006 and represented a nine-year effort that included more than 600 writers.


Just like the book form, the online version includes articles on state people and places, culture, science and art and a 12,000-event timeline. But thanks to online technology, it also includes videos and interactive maps - and a little quiz where you can test your "WVIQ."

The website for the online version,


http://www.wvencyclopedia.org


will be offered for free, with no ads on the site.


"We do hope it will continue to be a revenue producer for us," Sullivan added. "We're going to offer opportunities for people to contribute. We'll continue to sell the print books on the website. And we've got another resource we will offer there, a film history, which we recently released as a DVD. So we're hopeful that we'll find revenue streams."
