Data types
Encyclopedia articles
Helicon can provide solid, authoritative, educationally vetted articles, richly supplemented with multimedia assets.
Because different groups want different things from an encyclopedia, our databases are structured for maximum flexibility. You can specify:
- the number of entries – editors rank our articles by importance, so if you would prefer a shorter encyclopedia, we can make sure it still includes all the major topics.
- short, medium, or long articles, depending on whether you would like a brief overview of each topic or a detailed discussion.
- any other items you would like linked to your encyclopedia articles – we can offer images, animations, audio clips, feature essays, historical documents, tables, links to Web sites, quotations, country fact boxes, amazing facts, and memory joggers.
We can product any size of encyclopedia for you, ranging from a concise version consisting of just under 9,000 articles to the comprehensive version containing over 78,000 entries. Contact us to discuss your specific requirements. Updates can be arranged according to your schedule and requirements.
Biographies
From the famous to the infamous, Helicon's set of biographies covers the lives and works of politicians, actors, scientists, film stars, national figures, and many more.
Choose from over 30,000 biographies of the most important, topical, or just plain interesting people, of all time and from all around the world.
A fantastic resource for exploring key people, the database can be divided into specific sets of biographies by topic (e.g. biographies of scientists), by country or region, or by date. With all this to choose from, you are bound to find a set to match the interests and needs of your audience.
