Unless of course we're talking about a 1911 edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica, or anything before that, in which case that doesn't matter. Those books are highly sought after among collectors, provided they're in good condition. In that case, they might be quite valuable.

Just look at Wikipedia and how much it’s changed. If archive.org is ever compromised then our ability to obtain accurate information is fucked.
