This book presents empirical evidence that the information skills of students of higher learning institutions can be improved using a set of personal and environmental variables. Using a judiciously planned and scientifically carried out study, it represents a great contribution in addressing the learning crisis that the Google generation face. The results of the study offer great hope for teachers and students at higher education institutions in an information overloaded society. Through its simplicity in presentation, meticulously planned procedure, and in-depth analysis, this book is a must-read for researchers in the field of education.
