Well, this might be very subjective, but in my case, I feel I can accomplish more and better research in a library rather than on Google. In fact, whenever I want to be productive in the sense of "creating something new" , I need to stay away from the Internet to avoid procrastination and distraction. What I usually do is do some preliminary research online, write down and print out my findings, and then go to the next library or a nice cafe to do my work.
