Almanacs are typically published on an annual basis. There are basic calendar related dates for that year included in their content. They are designed to have the most commonly requested information in a readily available, inexpensive, single volume source.
Encyclopedias have much more in depth knowledge and usually have many volumes. They are detailed and expensive, but good research tools. They are written so that the information is valid for as long a period as possible.
