Books in LUNA

The LUNA BookReader integrates the discovery and display of compound objects such as books, manuscripts, and newspapers in LUNA. You can search inside a BookReader object, turn its pages, and zoom into the text. But you can also add whole books and/or individual pages to your Active Media Group and pages can be used in Slide Shows and presentations.

In addition to descriptive data, BookReader objects are indexed for full text searching.

Browsing BookReader Objects

As with other media in LUNA, you can browse BookReader objects in the Thumbnail View. Below is a search result with both images and BookReaderobjects. The BookReader objects have a small pink book icon in the lower right corner of their thumbnail.

• Detail View: Simply click on a BookReader object once to view it in the Detail View- just like with all other media in LUNA. Once in the Detail Viewyou can view the full catalog data for the object, turn its pages, and search inside the book.

• Full View: From the Detail View, click on "Open Book in Full View". This will open the object with the pages of the book presented in a vertical thumbnail panel. The thumbnail panel lets you quickly jump to any page of the book, and add any page to your Active Media Group:
