Moodle Guide

Book Resource

The book resource will allow you to create a multi-page resource for students with multiple chapters and a table of contents.
You can embed multimedia into Book chapters.

Step 1

Select Book from the activity and resource chooser window.

Step 2

Give the Book a unique name and description.

Step 3

Choose how you would like to format the chapter number in the book. You can select None, numbers, bullets, or indented.

Custom titles

The chapter title is displayed in the TOC and as a heading above the content. If the Custom titles are checked, then the title is NOT displayed above the content text.

Step 4: Adding new chapters

Use the contextual menu on the right of each chapter in the Table of Contents.

Importing Chapter

Use Folders and HTML documents to import multiple chapters and pages. 

Step 1

Select Import Chapter from Book Main Menu.

Step 2

Choose how you would like your chapter imported.

• Each HTML file represents one chapter: all HTML files in the folder will be separate pages within the book.
• Each folder represents one chapter: you can have multiple chapters with multiple sub pages.

Importing from Microsoft Word

You can import a Microsoft Word document directly to a Book. The subheadings in Word can be used to create sub-chapters in your Moodle Book.

Exporting Books and Chapters to Microsoft Word

You can export an entire book or a chapter into Microsoft Word.
