CD-ROM Edition Copyrights and Credits

Entry updated 9 February 2026. Tagged: Prelim.

The following list of copyrights and acknowledgements appeared in the Grolier CD-ROM The Multimedia Encyclopedia of Science Fiction (1995) and is preserved here for the historical record. "Multimedia" content added by Grolier to the SFE text consisted of six old film trailers (The Blob, Buck Rogers, The Day of the Triffids, Flash Gordon, The Little Shop of Horrors and War of the Worlds), fifteen "talking heads" video clips of authors discussing sf, six short and perfunctory thematic animations ("About SF", "Time", "Space", "Science and Technology", "Mind and Spirit" and "Life Forms"), more than 70 brief audio recordings talking about sf, and well over two thousand low-resolution images: author photographs and scans of book covers, magazine covers and film posters.
