Explore the Classics With Our New CliffsNotes apps

We’re excited to have deepened our ties with Wiley Publishing to create 16 new mobile applications for their CliffsNotes English Literature series, with more to come. Designed to work on the i-devices, our developers have been working tirelessly to create an experience that is not only entertaining but quite effective. Have only a few days or hours to study? Our CliffsNotes applications offer two modes of review - the Cram Plan and the Full Study Plan. So, if life has gotten in the way, choose the customizable Cram Plan and hit the highlights or dig a little deeper. You decide. Have weeks or months to devote to studying? Then roll up your sleeves and choose the Full Study Plan. It puts all of the app’s content at your fingertips. Literally.

With a multiple-choice quiz included in every app, you can assess your mastery of the material. Need to review a particularly important passage again? The app allows easy-to-use bookmarking so you can go back to that section again and again. Having trouble following all of the characters and their associations? Check out the interactive character maps. Don’t have time to read through all of the content? The app provides audio plot summaries that you can listen to wherever and whenever is convenient. Some screenshots from To Kill A Mockingbird follow:
