-==Common books by others==+==Linking to Holy Books and other short documents==
 +When you cite a quotation from a Holy Book or other non-book Liber by Crowley, there are a few formats you can use. For some, you can use the common title. Include the chapter and verse if relevant. Here are some examples:
 +*''Every number is infinite; there is no difference.'' (AL I:4)
 +*''And I believe in the Serpent and the Lion, Mystery of Mystery, in His name BAPHOMET'' (Liber XV)
 +*''It is but for convenience that these grades have been separated into Three Triads'' (Liber CXCIV, An Intimation...)
 +Using a long liber number is not useful. Instead of this:
 +*''every act must be a ritual, an act of worship, a sacrament.'' (Liber DCCCXXXVII)
 +Use the common name:
 +*''every act must be a ritual, an act of worship, a sacrament.'' (The Law of Liberty)
