Teachers gather, store and organize all types of electronic documents, create workbooks to correlate with specific content areas, speed-up your Internet scavenger hunts or WebQuests and enhance them with personal annotations.

Once you have created a KeeBook you have the option of taking it one step further and changing those KeeBooks to Web Books so that they can be viewed in an Internet browser. This feature allows people who do not have KeeBook Creator on their computer, to still be able to view the KeeBook. Follow these steps:
- Create a folder on your Desktop or in My Documents and name it "Keebooks"
- Open KeeBook Creator and go to Library View.
- Open the KeeBook that you want to convert by double clicking on the book on the bookshelf.
- Click File / Export / Next.
- Under "Book Type", click the button in front of "Web Book" and then click "Next."
- Click to put a checkmark in front of "Notes and highlighted text" - "Flip pages two by two" and "Show 3-D page flipping effect" then click "Next."
- Click Book format "Exe" and then click the button with three dots ... to help you navigate to the KeeBook folder you created on your desktop or in My Documents.
- Now click "Next" and "Finish"
- After the computer "does its thing" open your KeeBook folder on the desktop and double click on the name of the file you exported (it has now has an .exe file extension)
- By double clicking on the .Exe file, the Web book will be created, now you will have to decide if you want to create a shortcut on the desktop or not.
- Make sure that you put a checkmark in front of "Leave an addition to KeeBooks group in the Windows Start / Programs Menu, click "OK" and it will open.
A KeeBook Web Book can not be changed or modified after it is in Web Book format.
