Attach Books to individuals as Sources
It would be great if there was a way to attach searched Books to individuals as Sources, just as you can with Image searches.
Thank you.

I am not familiar with Sources as I don't use the Family Tree, but if it involves a URL for a book in the FamilySearch Digital Library, there is a URL available for the book catalog entry, and you can "derive" a URL for a particular page, which someone on the previous GetSatisfaction Forum helpfully advised.
As an example URL through the Digital Library for Indian Army List April 1921 is https://www.familysearch.org/library/books/records/item/286965-indian-army-list-april-1921. In case this is reformatted the last part after family search.org is /library/books/records/item/286965-indian-army-list-april-1921. If you want to link to a particular page, say page 161, the end format is /library/books/records/item/286965-indian-army-list-april-1921?viewer=1&page=161
For books in other digital libraries, if there is an online reader, it is usually possible to have copy the URL for a particular page.

My previous post disappeared @Mark McLemore (I thought this problem had been fixed)
This is an abbreviated version of what I had written
If you are looking for a URL for a book in the FamilySearch Digital Library the whole book URL is https://www.familysearch.org/library/books/records/item/286965-indian-army-list-april-1921. If you are looking for a URL for a particular page, say page 161, add extra to the end as follows
/library/books/records/item/286965-indian-army-list-april-1921?viewer=1&page=161
This method was advised on the previous GetSatisfaction Forum.
