This is the information sidebar template for books.

The Template

{{Infobox book
 | title = 
 | image = 
 | caption = 
 | author = 
 | franchise = 
 | preceded by = 
 | followed by = 
 | publication date = 
 | ISBN =
 | source page exists =
}}

title is the name of the work. If you don't provide it, the name of the wiki page will be used instead.

image is the name of the picture you uploaded to illustrate the book, without the "File:" prefix. Note: The image will display at 300 pixels wide in this infobox, so please choose something that looks good at that size. If no image is listed, the page will be listed at Category:Pages Needing Images.

caption is a caption for the image, and is optional. Please don't add a caption if you didn't add an image.

author is the writer's name. This will automatically be turned into a link to the All The Tropes page for the creator, so don't add crosslink markup to the name.

franchise is the name of the franchise that this book is a part of. Again, this will automatically be turned into a link to the All The Tropes page.

preceded by and followed by are the names of the books immediately before and after this book in the franchise. Once again, these will automatically be turned into links to the All The Tropes page.

publication date is when the book was first published.

source page exists is a special flag - if there is a Source subpage for the book on All The Tropes, set this to "yes"; otherwise, leave it blank.
