A fifth edition was published in May 1967. Some of the basic format was similar, with 12 volumes and 8 million words, the text was extensively revised, more illustrations were added and the typeface increased one third in size.[5] In the United States this was published as the International Everyman's Encyclopedia, in 20 volumes with one million words more that its UK counterpart.[6]
The 1978 sixth edition was not sold in the United States because of copyright issues with the illustrations. Specifically the cost of gaining rights to pictures was too high compared to the company's probably return on investment.[7] It was however, distributed in Canada by Fitzhenry & Whiteside. This edition had 12 volumes, 8,896 pages, 51,000 articles, and 9 million words. 5,000 black and white illustrations, 600 maps and a 64-page color atlas in the final volume. Articles were of the specific entry type, averaging 200 words or a fifth of a page, and were all unsigned. 400 contributors and editors were "noted", however. There were 15,000 cross-references, but no index.[8] As of 1994 the publishers had stated that there were no plans to produce a new print edition of the encyclopedia.[9]
In 1934 a Canadian edition was published by the Cambridge Society of Montreal. Titled the Cambridge Encyclopedia this was mostly a reprint of the 1931 edition, with the 12 volumes of text and an atlas making up the 13th volume. Some color illustration plates were added to each volume and a maple leaf was added to the binding. Despite these cosmetic changes the set was sold in Canada for twice what it was in the US.[14] This apparently tarnished the encyclopedia's reputation somewhat.[15]
