Answers to FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: How can we do this for free? Is it free? How can I help?

A: Yes, it's absolutely free to the users. We made a decision to offer our products free of charge and now we are supported by advertising and sponsors. Without your support in this area, PinkMonkey cannot survive and continue to provide you with the ever-expanding library of quality resources you need. It's always a big help to us if you spread the word about the Monkey to all of your friends. Tell your teachers and tell your classmates. Much of the world doesn't know about PinkMonkey yet. We need your help. We also sell our downloadable booknotes in our MonkeyNotes Store You can find a printable version of our booknotes there and support our effort.

Q: Where are the booknotes?

A: For some reason, that is a very common question. The free booknotes are in the MonkeyNotes section. When you go there, you can either select the title you need from one of the numerous lists by Author or title or use the booknotes search engine. When you find the title you need, just click on the appropriate link to view it. We have also have a download store where you can purchase a downloadable and print formatted version of the online notes for a small fee. That option may interest some of you. To reach that page, click on the Printable Booknotes link.

Q: What if I can not find the information that I need?

A: While we continue to add content to PinkMonkey all the time, we realize there may be content needs left unmet. First, we’d encourage you to look in all the areas that might contain the information you need. For instance, there may be some similar content in CoreConcept topics such as American History and American Government. You should look in both areas.

If you find the information you need does not exist, please make us aware of that. Let us Know We use member input in prioritizing content upgrades.

Q: I can't find "Alien Autopsy: A Love Story" by Beezer Snardflask" and I have a book report due tomorrow morning, send me booknotes.

A: We have focused our MonkeyNotes to primarily cover popular titles. There are of course thousands of titles out there and though we would like to, we just can't cover every obscure title ever written. If you can't find a booknote for it on PinkMonkey, there is still a chance that you may be able to find some helpful information on the Internet. Go to a search engine like Google or one of the many others and type in the Title and Author and see if you can locate information. It can be a real chore. We've been there. That's why we made the site in the first place.
