The book module makes it easy to create multi-page resources with a book-like format. This can be used to build complete book-like websites inside of your Moodle course.
Previously created websites can be imported directly into the Book module. Books can be printed entirely or by chapter.

Turn on editing in your course and choose the book resource from the drop down activity menu: File:Book1.png

There are several predefined numbering types:
None - chapter and subchapter titles are not formatted at all, use if you want to define special numbering styles. For example letters: in chapter title type "A First Chapter", "A.1 Some Subchapter",...
Numbers - chapters and subchapters are numbered (1, 1.1, 1.2, 2, ...)
Bullets - subchapters are indented and displayed with bullets.
Indented - subchapters are indented.
