The Book Solution Pack module allows for the creation of a book collection, and the ingesting of pages into that book. Essentially, a 'book' object is a special type of collection into which page objects can be ingested and organized.

Usage
The Book Solution Pack module functions slightly different than most other solution packs, in that it is a collection that acts similarly to a regular data object. Books exists as a collection, but are able to perform tasks like derivative creation and viewing similar to how other content models function.

Solr Settings
These 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
These two sections change how Islandora handles a request in the the 'View' tab of a Book object and Page object, respectively. Islandora includes out-of-the-box support for the Internet Archive Bookreader and OpenSeadragon as book and page viewers; check the links in the Dependencies section above for more information on installing these components.
