Parameters

image: Image (prefer 1st edition where permitted), use bare filename: Example.jpg
For a title page from a Commons PDF, specify the page and width in the syntax: [[File:Lissagaray - Histoire de la Commune de 1871, MS.djvu|page=9|220px]]
image_size: Uses image size set by user (default 220px). Use a number to override image size. However, this is discouraged per WP:THUMBSIZE.
border: Inserting yes here will result in a 1px grey border around the image, useful for instances where the image and the background will blend together (such as a book cover with a white background). If no border is necessary, this parameter should not be used. Note: does not apply if Vorlage:Para uses the full image syntax (e.g. [[File:Example.jpg]]); in this case add the border in Vorlage:Para (e.g. [[File:Example.jpg|border=yes]])
author/authors: Author(s)
audio_read_by: For audiobooks.
title_orig: Original title, if not in English.
orig_lang_code: ISO 639 code of original language.
working_title: Working title, when different from published title
translator: Translator(s), if original not in English
illustrator: Illustrator (where used throughout and a major feature)
cover_artist: Cover artist, if any
series: Series (if any)
release_number: The "release number" of a book within the "series" (also would be called a "volume") - n.b. only relevant for an article where "series" is populated
subject/subjects: (for non-fiction) See index term and library classification
genre/genres: (for fiction) See literary genre. Use {{hlist}} for sorting multiple entries.
set_in: can be both time and place as setting. No need to create long lists. Use approximate dates/places if it is not clearly specified in the text.
media_type: Print / Digital (then binding types etc., if relevant)
award/awards: Awards(s) the book has won
isbn: (prefer ISBN of 1st edition). Format: "1-234-56789-0" (10-digit) or "978-1-234-56789-0" (13-digit). If the book has a standard book number (9 digits) add a "0" to the beginning of the number. Do not change a 10-digit to a 13-digit ISBN by prefixing a "978" by hand, because the last digit is a calculated check digit, which will be wrong. Similarly, do not remove "978-" from a 13-digit ISBN to make a 10-digit ISBN. If the book was published before the use of ISBN, do not include this parameter. If the 13-digit number you have does not start with "978", "979-10", or "979-11", then it is not an ISBN and should not be used in this parameter. Change spaces in the ISBN to hyphens. The rules for hyphenating an ISBN are complex (currently 29 pages). Do not add spaces or hyphens to an unformatted ISBN which are likely to be wrong if you are guessing. However the "978" prefix of a 13-digit ISBN is always separated by a hyphen and the check digitVorlage:Spndthe last characterVorlage:Spndis always separated by a hyphen. The last character of a 10-character ISBN may be an "X". In such case, use the uppercase "X" character, not any alternate character. Do not put "ISBN" in front of the number. ISBNs are checked for validity; articles with invalid ISBNs are placed in Category:Pages with ISBN errors and display a red error message.
oclc: OCLC number (prefer 1st edition), use when book has no ISBN
preceded_by_quotation_marks: Title of prior work Vorlage:Em if a minor work; will be surrounded with quotation marks by template code (do not use to connect separate books chronologically)
followed_by: Title of subsequent book Vorlage:Em; will be italicised by template code (do not use to connect separate books chronologically)
followed_by_quotation_marks: Title of subsequent work Vorlage:Em if a minor work; will be surrounded with quotation marks by template code (do not use to connect separate books chronologically)
exclude_cover: This template will place articles with this infobox where no image has been specified into the category Books with missing cover; where this is not desired, e.g because the cover is shown elsewhere in the article, this parameter should be set to Vorlage:Para.
