World Book Public Library edition searches and gives mostly the same info as the Student version. However the games are cool - perhaps I'll point this out to some little friends.
World Book Info finder - adds in current events on page. Gives same info as found in the student version. Its nice to have ideas for Science projects.... I'll certainly remember where that is!
World Book Reference Center. Easy to navigate compares well with WB Advance
My conclusion is that in a Public Library setting either the set of the World Books will be helpful. It doesn't matter which one is used as long as it is easy for the patron to use.

Thanks for your observations, ILL. We agree that both editions are useful in both public and school libraries. There are some different features in each, and I'm glad you took the time to look. :)I love the games in Kids, too. Did you notice they can be set to different levels for different ability levels?
