From the project: "Project Information Literacy (PIL) is a nonprofit research institute that conducts scholarly studies about students and how they find, evaluate, select, and create information for use in their courses and for solving information problems in everyday life.

We have collected data from almost 21,000 students and recent graduates. All together, 93 U.S. public and private colleges and universities, community colleges, and 34 high schools have participated in PIL’s institutional samples during the past decade. PIL has produced 12 open access reports, since 2009."
