Joan Lippincott, associate executive director of the Coalition for Networked Information, contributed a video interview to the ELI 2007 Fall Focus Session, Being Net Savvy: Developing Skills for A Rapidly Changing World. Here's her description of it:

"My daughter, Meg Lippincott, a sophomore at Vassar College, has been working at her college library reference desk and occasionally sharing some observations with me about how students seek information for their academic work.  I interviewed her for a brief video for the ELI Focus Session on net savvy students.  Her friend Jan Zhan, a student at University of Maryland, did the camera work.  Meg discusses some aspects of information literacy, the way she learned to use some math software, and her definition of a 'net savvy student.'"  --Joan Lippincott
