Parent Solr

...

Field

This field defines the field in Solr that associates pages with their parent book objects. The default is `RELS_EXT_isMemberOf_uri_ms`.

Metadata Display

Check "Display object metadata" if you would like the book's descriptive metadata, "In collections" statement, and description to display below the book viewer. If unchecked, only the book viewer will appear on the object pageThese two fields define how Solr is able to find the PID of a page's parent book, and that page's number, respectively. Changing these fields requires a working knowledge of Solr queries and RDF, and for the most part, they should remain untouched.

Book Viewers and Page Viewers

Islandora includes out-of-the-box support for the Internet Archive Bookreader Book Reader and OpenSeadragon as book and page viewers; check .
