Not Enough Time in the Library

While college students may be computer-literate, they are not, as a rule, research-literate. And there's a huge difference between the two.

Huge? Maybe a ton would have been better?

The fact that some professors do not recognize the distinction means they effectively assume that their students find themselves as much at home in the complex and daunting world of information as when they upload 25 photos from their iPhone to Facebook and text their friends to announce the latest "pics."

Very true.
