This is a documentation subpage for Template:Infobox book. It contains usage information, categories, interlanguage links and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This infobox automatically italicizes the article title. If this is not required, add |italic title=no to the list of parameters. If this is required and the title is over 50 characters or contains text in parentheses that should also be italicized, add |italic title=force |
This template is used to present a consistently-formatted table for use in articles about books.
