Academic American, which has been used by schools since last September, has earned high marks from students. Says Jennifer Lombardi, 11, a sixth-grader at Lindbergh, "It's better than going to a book because it's easier to type into a keyboard than to flip through pages." Notes Adrian Treves, 14, a ninth-grader at Princeton High: "It's especially good for ancient history and English reports." Sums up Herbert Highfield, director of Princeton High's library: "If popularity indicates success, then this new encyclopedia is very successful indeed...
