I am creating an eBook on the history of bioethics for nurses while also learning more about using iBooks Author. I did not see an iBooks Author widget for YouTube videos, so I did a web search. I found a free EASY to use website entitled Bookry.com with lots of neat widgets including one for YouTube. Bookry has a short video demonstrating the process.
Adding a YouTube video to an iBooks Author ebook is a four-step process - but it is quick and easy!
Adding a YouTube video to an iBooks Author ebook is a four-step process - but it is quick and easy!
- First create an eBook - just a title with a placeholder for widgets.
- Add the YouTube widget to the Bookry ebook - name the YouTube video the subject of the video, add the name of the video, and the YouTube URL.
- Save the YouTube video to your Mac downloads folder.
- Drag the widget from the Mac downloads folder into your iBooks Author ebook. From there you can use the Inspector to format and title the video.
