A PhD: Producing knowledge? or frustration?

I just Googled a reference, got the title, looked it up in the library catalogue, and got the call number for a very useful-sounding book. Very productive, right?

Turns out I had already read the entire book and there are two pages of notes from it sitting on my desk in front of my face.

Am I learning anything in grad school?!
(besides maybe that I should look on my desk (or - better yet - in my brain?!) before I look in the library?)
