Nationalencyklopedins ordbok på cd-rom

Resumé

The new Swedish monolingual dictionary Nationalencyklopedins ordbok in three volumes, the last one of which was published in 1996, has now been published on CD/ROM. The electronic version is very easy to use and the layout is nice and clear. It can be used both for PC and Macintosh. It has some nice search functions, above all good filters for restricting the searches as to e.g. subject field and word class. However, an experienced user of electronic searching tools will probably be disappointed, because the functions could have been developed a lot more. In comparison to the corresponding Finnish electronic dictionary the programme feels rather clumsy.
