Thomson - Gale. Big collection of Encyclopedies [Repost]

Thomson Gale was a part of the Thomson Learning division of the Thomson Corporation, and is based in Farmington Hills, Michigan, in the western suburbs of Detroit. It is now part of Cengage Learning and is now called Gale.
The company, formerly known as Gale Research and the Gale Group, is active in research and educational publishing for public and academic libraries, schools and businesses. The company is probably best known for its full-text magazine and newspaper database InfoTrac, and for its multi-volume reference works, especially in the areas of religion, history and social science.
Gale print imprints include the reference brands Macmillan Reference USA, Charles Scribner's Sons, Primary Source Microfilm, Scholarly Resources Inc., Schirmer Reference, St. James Press, The TAFT Group and Twayne Publishers. Five Star Publishing is Gale's fiction imprint, with hundreds of books in print in the Western, Romance, Mystery and Science Fiction & Fantasy genres. Gale also sells into the K-12 market with several imprints, including U·X·L, Greenhaven Press, KidHaven Press, Lucent Books, and others.
In 1999, Thomson Gale acquired Thorndike Press, a publisher of large print books. In 2000 it acquired the Munich-based K.G. Saur Verlag, but then sold it to Gruyter GmbH & Co. KG in 2006. Gale also owns large print publishers Walker Large Print and Wheeler Publishing.
On October 25, 2006 Thomson Corporation announced that it intended to wholly divest the Thomson Learning division, because, in the words of Thomson CEO Richard Harrington, "it does not fit with our long-term strategic vision". Thomson has said that it expected this sale to generate approximately US$5 billion. The company was bought by a private equity consortium consisting of Apax Partners and OMERS Capital Partners for US$7.75 billion and the name was changed from Thomson Learning to Cengage Learning on 24 July 2007.
