The article kind of disagrees with that:

> Plus, a growing body of evidence shows that physical books and papers are more conducive to learning than digital formats are.

I'd also agree with the article's point that getting face-to face advice from a librarian can be a lot more helpful for research than crawling through the internet by yourself - especially of you're an undergrad.
