*Detailed instructions on how to create these templates are found on the [[Help:FamilySearch Templates#FamilySearch Catalog|FamilySearch Templates]] Wiki page.
*This is used when the call number of the book, fiche, or film is displayed. Books using this template should not be in FamilySearch Digital Library UNLESS there are multiple volumes. If this happens, use these [[FamilySearch_Wiki:Manual_of_Style-Formatting#Links to Digital Images in the Catalog - Using Templates|instructions.]]
*The display link should include FS Library book, FS Library film, or FS Library Fiche. More information on how to label these links are found [[Help:FamilySearch Templates#FFamilySearch Catalog - FSC Template to Catalog Entries|here.]]

====Books Online - Multiple Volumes====
When there is more than one volume, use the following instructions to create the online book link:<br>
*'''FSC Template:''' When the book is in the FamilySearch Digital Library and there is more than one volume, you may choose to use the FSC template instead of the URL to the Digital Library. Use instructions from [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Links to Digital Images in the Catalog - Using Templates|here]] to learn how to use the template. For an example of using a FSC template with multiple volumes, see [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Books Online - Four or More Volumes|below]].
*'''Other Websites:''' When there is more than three volumes, try finding the results list page listing each of the volumes. If one cannot be found, add the URL to each volume number. See an '''[[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Books Online - Four or More Volumes|example]].'''

===Books Online - Create URL for FamilySearch Digital Books and Other Websites===
*'''URL:''' Use the URL to the online book as the link. FamilySearch Digital Library links should be obtained using these '''[[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Books Online - Dates Listed on Online Book Link (Listing Title First)|instructions]]'''.
*'''Online at:''' When a digital version of a source is available, add the phrase "Online at:" at the end of the citation.
*'''Format:''' Bold and italicize the phrase for better visibility.
*'''Number of Websites:''' If an online book is available on more than one website, list up to three websites. List the free websites first. Avoid Google Books unless there is no other free website option.
*'''Websites to Link to:''' Look for free websites first, such as, [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Books Online - Obtaining a Link in FamilySearch Digital Library|FamilySearch Digital Library]], Hathitrust, Internet Archive, WorldCat, and Ancestry($). Google Books should only used if it is a free book and the only option. Ancestry is a paid website, but can often have the only available online version of the book. To indicate a cost, use a ($) after Ancestry, such as, Ancestry ($).
*'''Link to Book:''' The clickable link to the online digital book should be the name of the website, such as, FamilySearch Digital Library, Hathitrust, Internet Archive, WorldCat, and Ancestry ($). Google Books should only be used if it is free and it is the only option.
*'''Multiple Volumes for Online Books:''' Use these '''[[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Books Online - Multiple Volumes|instructions]]''' to list links for multiple volumes.
*'''Dates (Listing Title First):''' If there are specific dates regarding the information in the book, it may be included at the beginning of the link for entries listing title first. This should be used when in a bullet list of online collections also giving dates. Dates should be avoided if it is in a bullet list of online books available, so it will match the other books listed. Use these [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Books Online - Dates Listed on Online Book Link (Listing Title First)|Instructions]]
*'''WorldCat:''' A link to WorldCat can also be added to the online book link. It is not required. It should be before "Online at:" in the link. '''[[Help:WorldCat Templates|Instructions on how to make the template.]]'''
*'''Style of Bibliographic Entry:''' Links to online books should be included with both styles of bibliographic entries:<br>
:1) [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#List of Books in Body of the Wiki Page (Listing Title First) - Online|List of Books in Body of the Wiki Page (Listing Title First)]], such as, in a Local Histories header of a county page. [[Warren County, Ohio Genealogy#Local Histories|Example]].
:2) [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#References or Bibliographic Lists of Books (Listing Author First) - Online|References or Bibliographic Lists of Books (Listing Author First)]] in references or Bibliography or For Further Reading heading. Examples are listed below. [[World War II United States Military Records, 1941 to 1945#Sources for Further Reading|Example]]

=====Books Online - Obtaining a Link in FamilySearch Digital Library=====
*'''Old Template:''' Previously, a template was used to link to the FamilySearch Digital Library. The current link structure to FamilySearch makes it impossible to use a template. If you see an old template, please convert it to the URL using the instructions listed in the next bullet. The old FamilySearch Digital Library template was: FSbook.
*'''Instructions to Obtain Correct URL:'''
:*Navigate to the book you wish to link to by searching the [https://www.familysearch.org/library/books/ FamilySearch Digital Library] or the [https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog FamilySearch Catalog].
:*When you select the book from the list of results, it will take you to one of two screens. On either view you will see an icon with a greater than sign. This icon indicates that you can share the link to the book on social media.
:*This button is either under the image of the book in the summary view. [[File:Share link FSDL.PNG|35px]]
:*Or, when viewing the book, in the right hand corner at the end of the menu to the right of the upload button (in yellow). [[File:Share link FSDL book view.PNG|50px]]
:*Click on the button and a menu will appear.
:*Click on, Copy link and it will save the URL to your clipboard.
:*You can now paste this URL to the online book link on the Wiki page.
''Note: the copied link may need to be adjusted to make it a clickable. This usually requires adding: https://  Adding an "s" after http is also necessary on other links.''<br>

*'''Format:''' Bold and italicize the phrase for better visibility.
*'''Number of Websites:''' If an online book is available on more than one website, list up to three websites. List the free websites first. Avoid Google Books unless there is no other free website option.
*'''Websites to Link to:''' Look for free websites first, such as, [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Books Online - Obtaining a Link in FamilySearch Digital Library|FamilySearch Digital Library]], Hathitrust, Internet Archive, WorldCat, and Ancestry($). Google Books should only used if it is a free book and the only option. Ancestry is a paid website, but can often have the only available online version of the book. To indicate a cost, use a ($) after Ancestry, such as, Ancestry ($).

*'''Dates (Listing Title First):''' If there are specific dates regarding the information in the book, it may be included at the beginning of the link for entries listing title first. This should be used when in a bullet list of online collections also giving dates. Dates should be avoided if it is in a bullet list of online books available, so it will match the other books listed. Use these [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Books Online - Dates Listed on Online Book Link (Listing Title First)|Instructions]]
*'''WorldCat:''' A link to WorldCat can also be added to the online book link. It is not required. It should be before "Online at:" in the link. '''[[Help:WorldCat Templates|Instructions on how to make the template.]]'''
*'''Style of Bibliographic Entry:''' Links to online books should be included with both styles of bibliographic entries:<br>
:1) [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#List of Books in Body of the Wiki Page (Listing Title First) - Online|List of Books in Body of the Wiki Page (Listing Title First)]], such as, in a Local Histories header of a county page. [[Warren County, Ohio Genealogy#Local Histories|Example]].
