INSTRUCTIONS: Entering a Book

Making A Book Create the Book Reference card - First check if the bibliography exists here http://ismaili.net/heritage/biblio-search If it exists, go to "Creating a book page" below. - Go To Create content -> Document - Enter Type Book, the Year, and Title - Under categories, enter: Book Type (probably General Book) And then the following: - Granularity is important. If we are entering the whole book, choose -full Text- - Author: enter the first name altogether or with dashes so that the system knows where the last name starts. - If you think the book should show up in the history section, add -Historical- to the Document type - Skip the other categories. - For other fields, enter data as best you can. - For Source, if none available, enter -The Heritage Society Collection- - Click on Attached Images and select the Image you entered for the book cover. Creating a book page: Here's a page I will enter: http://www.ismaili.net/Source/myflag/06alamut.html It is the sixth chapter, titled -Alamut period- Even though the chapters in the original book are not numbered, we must assign a number for the chapters to appear in order in the table of contents, so we will call it -06. Alamut period- Now Create a Book Page (Create content - Book Page) - Enter the chapter title - 06. Alamut period - - copy - paste the text in the body field - Put the <i> </i> tags around any text that needs to be italic (such as the image caption) - Make sure to select the Book title as the Parent for this book page. - That's it, submit and the chapter will get entered and placed in the table of contents. If this is the First book page, then: - The page doesn't need to be numbered, just put the title as-is - In the Categories section, select the Book from the Book container. This links the first page of your book to the Book Reference Card. - You do not need to do this step for any subsequent pages. Chapter Numbering Issue: If you numbered your chapters 1. 2. 3... 9. Then the chapter # 10. will be laced alphabetically after chapter 1. ! So make sure to name everything 01, 02, etc.. Images - If the Book contains images, make an album for it under the Books Album; Make sure to select -allow others to post to this album- - Enter one Image that can serve as the cover image. Create content -> image and put it in the album for this book and for book covers. - Add other images to this album, and select the book page that each image should show up on by filling the - Literature Link - field for each image - Enter a caption if available.
