Abstract
The Croatian Encyclopaedia is the fundamental edition in the valuable collection of printed and electronic editions of the Miroslav Krleža Institute of Lexicography. The printed edition of the Croatian Encyclopaedia in 11 volumes had been published from 1999 to 2009, and in 2013 the Institute initiated its digital edition. Properties and functionalities of the new media used for issuing the digital Croatian Encyclopaedia pose new challenges for the lexicographers and the encyclopaedic profession both in terms of organisation of work processes and content development. The digitally published content can be updated on a daily basis, and that marks the essence of the changes and challenges faced by the encyclopaedic profession.
