Within a database, a book is assigned with a unique ID (usually numeric, but sometimes alphanumeric). With this two param, a book can be identified uniquely in the NLC and a URL can be generated accordingly. Additionally, a category id (i.e. searchType) could be specified, which would set the navigation bar and the background of the book page.
Please be noted that a books may consists of multiple volumes (i.e. files), which are identified with their own volume IDs within databases. A database ID paired with a a volume ID can uniquely identify a volume/file in the NLC. This template cares only books but not volumes.
