Oxford English Dictionary ‘Will Not Be Printed Again’

Alastair Jamieson, reporting for The Telegraph:

Simon Winchester, author of 'The Meaning of Everything: The Story of the Oxford English Dictionary', said the switch towards online formats was "prescient". He said: "Until six months ago I was clinging to the idea that printed books would likely last for ever. Since the arrival of the iPad I am now wholly convinced otherwise."
