Examples:
A hyperlinked word or phrase:

Types of Links
There are three types of links that may go into an interactive ebook.
- Hyperlinks or built-in words or phrases in the manuscript that link to an intended resource
- Links that are part of lists or citations that need to be activated
- Links that are used as resources for which the author would like to provide a lead-in or explanation in a sidebar or textbox apart from the main text
- If you intend to provide a linked resource as a sidebar or textbox, please refer to the later section for Inserting a Link Tag for Sidebars or Textboxes.
