  Cyclopaedia, or Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cyclopaedia, or, A Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences (folio, 2 vols.) was an encyclopedia published by Ephraim Chambers in London in 1728, and reprinted in numerous editions in the 18th Century.
The Cyclopaedia was one of the first general encyclopedias to be produced in English.
Chambers's Cyclopaedia was the inspiration for the landmark Encyclopédie of Denis Diderot and Jean le Rond d'Alembert, which owed its inception to a French translation of Chambers' work begun in 1743 and finished in 1745 by John Mills, assisted by Gottfried Sellius.

One of the most important reference works on economics and political science to be published in nineteenth-century America, the Cyclopaedia of Political Economy, Political Science and the Political History of the United States also shows how strong was the influence of the French and German Historical Schools in American thought.
In this Cyclopaedia, Lalor has attempted to draw together the best and newest thinking about his subjects from the time.
It should be seen as being at the cutting edge of late nineteenth-century political and economic thought in America, and is a remarkable monument to one of the most important movements of the time.

It appeared in parts between January 1802 and August 1820, and ran to 39 volumes of text, 5 volumes of plates, and an atlas.
At the time of its publication Rees's Cyclopaedia was thought to be subversive, and the editors went out of their way to emphasise their Englishness.
Rees's Cyclopaedia is important today for the information it contains, particularly, about the science and technology of the period.

 Dramatic Machinery as Described in Abraham Rees' Cyclopaedia
In the opening years of the nineteenth century Abraham Rees assembled information for the publication in 1819 of the Cyclopaedia; or Universal Dictionary of Arts Sciences, and Literature, with (according to the frontispiece) "the assistance of eminent professional gentlemen".
The information contained in the Cyclopaedia is therefore of fundamental significance as it represents the first major printed work on British stage machinery.
Its importance is further enhanced by the fact that it was written by someone personally experienced in the field and capable of providing an invaluable insight into the profession of the early nineteenth-century stage machinist.

 Libraries@UW-Madison -Digitization behind the scenes
Digitizing the Cyclopaedia received final committee approval by one of two governing bodies, the UW Digital Steering Committee or the UWDCSC, a UW System-wide library committee focused on digital work.
Once approved, Cyclopaedia was reviewed by the Metadata Group, which creates the data that allows a digital object to be searchable.
Student staff supervised by Reformatting Group Head Pat Tuchscherer scanned every page of the four-volume Cyclopaedia on their overhead color scanner, a machine which allows the UWDCC to digitize oversized, rare or fragile objects without risk of harming the texts.
