is there any point to reading nonfiction when you can find pretty much any information on the internet from multiple sources

it's easier to get a solid understanding of scientific subjects through specific textbooks.

You will not find an easier, more condensed explanation of Biology online then you would in something like Campbells Biology or other textbooks. Honestly, it's for convenience, ease of access, readability, consistent quality, and it covers a wide variety of topics within it's subject. That way, you have something to compare your online research to. That applies to most good textbooks. I mean, you could thoroughly study the internet about the topic in question, but I just find having a textbook easier, there's a large portion of material related to the study all in one place.

Non-fiction books are part of the internet, of course.
