You might want to add The Reader's Guide to the Encyclopaedia Britannica, PD text available at https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/74039 and scans at https://archive.org/details/readersguidetoen00londuoft - It would fit naturally with the Ancillary material that includes the topic-based index.


It would indeed. I will see about working this in, it's highly pertinent.


The Reader's Guide has been added to the ancillary material. Thanks for the excellent suggestion.


Thanks for adding this! Do you plan to add back-links in the article pages (and perhaps in contributors pages) pointing to the chapters in the Reader's Guide that mention them, similar to what's done for the subject-based index?


Not a bad idea. I'll see what I can work out on that score. But I imagine the far more common path is from the Guide to the encyclopedia than the reverse.
