So far, you've been working inside your own book. But what if someone else has already written a page that you'd like to reuse or refer to in your own book? Instead of copying the content manually, you can **link to their page directly** using [TeachBooks’ external content feature](https://teachbooks.io/manual/features/external_toc.html). This way, if the original page is updated, your book will reflect those changes automatically!

Can you include a page from someone else’s book into your own using the `external` keyword?
\::::::
::::::
1. Choose a book you want to reuse content from. For this exercise, you can use this one as an example: `https://github.com/TeachBooks/manual`. Browse its content to find a specific page (e.g. `intro.md`).
2. In your own book repository, open the `_toc.yml` file. This controls which pages are shown in your book and in what order.

You can use external pages from public GitHub repositories that are formatted as valid Markdown. Just remember: the content is *read-only*—you can’t directly edit the external page from your book!
