So what is out there???

About 500 billion documents that cover everything you can imagine, and some things you probably can’t imagine; which is just as well.

This is not all. Students have to come to terms with a wide range of new genre. Traditionally students would paste together encyclopaedic information in the library and it could be done reasonably easily. With all these new genre pasting "stuff" does not work like it used to.
