<p class="MsoNormal">We don't have this resource, but we had The Encyclopedia of Life Sciences, another online Wiley product. We got it on a subscription basis, but cancelled it after 2012 when the use didn't justify the $4700 annual expenditure.

<p class="MsoNormal">Wiley's pricing model(s) for their online encyclopedias are, in my opinion, grossly out of line with the reality of library budgets. We bought the Encyclopedia of Sociology (Macmillan, 2000) on the Gale Virtual Reference Library platform
at a reasonable one-time price many years ago. While it's dated, in a world where our students are using library reference resources less and less, it's hard to justify annual expenditures for content with few updates.

high price (around US $ 10,000). We never bought the updates because we found them too expensive (about US $ 1,110 per year) for the number of entries updated (at least before 2015). If we look carefully at the Excel file available on this page (<a href="http://www.sociologyencyclopedia.com/subscriber/uid=1088/?&authstatuscode=202" target="_blank">http://www.sociologyencyclopedia.com/subscriber/uid=1088/?&authstatuscode=202</a>),
