Encyclopedia is very different to a dictionary.

Dictionary gives you the meaning and pronounciation of words whereas Encyclopedia gives you information about various aspects of history, sciences, geography, etc....

Both are reference books. One deals with all words; the other deals with nouns for the most part.
