I have volume 1-18 of the Encyclopedia Britannica. I also have Britannica Book of the Year 1963-1974 and the World Language edition. Additionally, I have the Wagnalls Standard Dictionary vol.1 part 1 a-p and vol.2 part 1 q-z.
How much are they worth?

None of these items are valuable. Reference books have value if they are complete, first editions, over 100 years old, or autographed by someone famous.
This set is under $100, It only rises in value when they are over 100 years old!
Encyclopedia sets can be of value but the edition, year, cover material and condition determine their value.
It appears that you do not have a full set so I would venture to say the only way you may be able to sell these would be by individual volumes and these can be very, very slow sellers. Most may only sell for $5-$8 dollars each.
You can always try to sell the other items but they will only be of minimal value and there are always year books available on eBay.
You can check eBay for similar books but only sold listings will give you an idea of current value.
The white set is more popular right now but not an incomplete set.
You can check eBay sold listings for similar books to see what someone may be willing to pay but it is difficult yo find an exact match.
Here is a link to books sold on eBay over the past several months.

They are not worth anything.No one wants to carry around a heavy book when all the technology is in your phone.
Back in the '60s and 70's, it was necessary to buy encyclopedias for your kids. Today all the information is stored online and it makes it easy to access this information. The set of books you have isn't complete and this makes it even harder to sell them off. Furthermore, people do not buy these types of books today because they take up a lot of room.
Hi, do you still have the encyclopedias and if you still do. Can you please email me at julian.cody.silla@gmail.com
