With printings from school, you often get short passages or short stories that are not in books or very difficult to find within books. But just being able to take a picture of it would make it so much easier.
Identifying the text isn't that hard, generally 10+ word excerpts pasted into Google will give you a source. The reviews/summaries though... for books you have amazon and good reads, for short stories though I don't know where you would find them. The search: '"no advantages" review alice munro' for instance only turns up material related to the collection that it is a part of, not for the story.
