When you've done your research and you're still wondering — Ask Cliff!
Cliff appreciates all your hard work. He's sure you'll find most of what you want to know right here at cliffsnotes.com, just by searching on a book title, author name, or keyword. Every study guide also offers a Search this CliffsNote option that'll get you deeper into that specific book content.
Digging through the loads of e-mail we get, Cliff likes to pick out questions that may be on the minds of lots of students. You can improve the chances of seeing your question and Cliff's answer on the site if you check out this inside info about Cliff.
Here's what Cliff can do for you:
- Cliff digs into his mailbox regularly and picks out questions he'd like to answer.
- Cliff uses his experience to give you a straightforward answer. He doesn't know everything, so he's willing to do a little research to give you a reliable response.
- When he's ready to let loose of his answer, he'll post it on the site for all to see.
Now, here's what Cliff will not do:
- Cliff won't put up questions about finding books or free content on the site. The search box in the upper right corner of every page can help you out with that.
- Cliff won't try to read your teacher's mind. The best way to figure out your teacher's expectations is to ask him.
- Cliff won't do your homework for you. Your best bet is to start early on your studies and homework, especially if reading a book is involved. Our online Literature Notes can then help you look at that book from different angles.
- He won't get into your personal life with answers to questions like, "How do I get out of babysitting my bratty cousin?" or "Who should I ask to the prom?"
- Cliff won't post questions from visitors who are under 13 years old. You can read about the reason for that rule at The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act.
