Cursed Encyclopedia - The book of all knowledgeable

When the Encyclopedia was first published it was meant to be book of all knowledge, in this scenario that remains. You possess the only Encyclopedia in existence, the only downside is it's cursed. For each use has a chance to wipe you off the existence permanently, a small chance but a chance indeed. What will you do with it? How often will you use it? Will you try to copy all the magical scrypts into another boo and become a wizard/witch? Will you use the book to become a potato farmer in rural Mongolia? I don't know, but you will. So go on out there and be careful, or not.
