Barnes & Noble’s deep understanding of what students want and need, combined with an unending commitment to innovation, led them to develop NOOK Study™ – a groundbreaking eTextbook reader and study platform that enables students to manage all their digital content (eTextbooks, class source materials, even their own notes) and study smarter using the computing device they use most – their own laptops and computers.
