Crafty Widgets

My major downfall in creating an interactive, digital book is the classic structure of textbooks. For years I've read and used texts that have simple columns with square images and captions underneath. Even though iBooks author is also initially structured like this, you can use widgets and other layout tools to break free from this mold!

Bookry

Originally Classroom Widgets, the Bookry organization is helping educators build upon the most powerful tool available in iBooks Author: the HTML 5 widget. They offer (for free) powerful tools which simply require a bit of input on your part to create custom built HTML 5 widgets.

Hack HTML 5 Widget

If you can find embed code, you can probably make it into an iBooks Author widget. Download the blank widget file and follow the skillful guide of Anthony DiLaura in the video below. You'll be hacking iBA widgets left and right!
