       Conclusion. 
520    "Every day researchers face an onslaught of irrelevant, 
       inaccurate, and sometimes insidious information. While new
       technologies provide powerful tools for accessing 
       knowledge, not all information is created equal. Valuable 
       information may be tucked away on a shelf, buried on the 
       hundredth page of search results, or hidden behind digital
       barriers. With so many obstacles to effective research, it
       is vital that higher education students master the art of 
       inquiry. Information Now is an innovative approach to 
       information literacy that will reinvent the way college 
       students think about research. Instead of the typical 
       textbook format, it uses illustrations, humor, and 
       reflective exercises to teach students how to become savvy
       researchers. Students will learn how to evaluate 
       information, to incorporate it into their existing 
       knowledge base, to wield it effectively, and to understand
       the ethical issues surrounding its use. Written by two 
       library professionals, it incorporates concepts and skills
       drawn from the Association of College and Research 
       Libraries' Information Literacy Competency Standards for 
       Higher Education and their Framework for Information 
       Literacy for Higher Education. Thoroughly researched and 
       highly engaging, Information Now offers the tools that 
       students need to become powerful consumers and creators of
       information in their academic careers and beyond." --From
