I fought with the school board over that.  I think I won in the long run, but
it was sort of moot as my daughter moved on to different teachers.  

The info my daughter gleened from the encyclopedia was woefully out of date.
Worse, it was inaccurate.  It was when I pointed out those flaws to my
daughter that she told me of the one-source only requirement.  Yes, I was
livid.
