The term encyclopedist (often, though now less often, written encyclopaedist in British English) is usually used for a group of French authors who collaborated in the 18th century in the production of the Encyclopédie, under the direction of Denis Diderot.

More generally, it can also be used as a term for a person helping to write an encyclopedia.
