The encyclopedic dictionary Brockhaus and Efron (in Russian: ЭнциклопедическийсловарьБрокгаузаиЕфрона) was published in the Russian Empire of 1890 to 1906 by an association of editors of Leipzig and Saint-Pétersbourg. The small edition includes/understands 35 volumes and large the 86. It is by its size and its presentation the Russian equivalent of the Encyclopædia Britannica of the time. It contains 121.240 articles, 7800 representations and 235 charts.

One saved the situation by inviting the best Russian specialists to write the texts directly.
After the fall of the Soviet Union, one reprinted the work which is now available on Internet: .
