Online encyclopaedias and encyclopaedic portals for children and young adults serve as useful tools for acquiring knowledge. This paper presents the results of the analysis of functionalities of three online encyclopaedias for children and young adults, Britannica Kids, Q-files and KidzSearch Encyclopedia in the digital environment. A set of basic criteria for the evaluation of usability of online encyclopaedias intended for young users were established. These criteria could serve as the basis for the definition of a concept for production of online encyclopaedic works for children and young adults. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
