Yeh, I thought that too. Maybe there *is* a spell you can perform that looks up information or some such but the students don't know it yet... maybe such wizarding technology does exist but is not available to these students because it would enable plagiarism or mean that the restricted section couldn't be restricted or something. Or maybe it was just convenient that it didn't exist, for the Gillyweed episode too.
