A Wikipedia Book (or a Wikipedia Reading list) is a book formed from an organized collection of Wikipedia articles. Their list forms (generally created using the Book Creator tool) are often nowadays hosted in the User namespace in the form of a list of Wikipedia article tiles, some lists may also include for reading only specific sections of the article (generally included as an anchor link). There are third party services for rendering electronically in PDF format, or ordering as a printed book. The book is compiled afresh each time it is retrieved by the service, so that a new upload will always reflect the latest versions of the articles. There are currently many Wikipedia Books that are available on book sellers such as Amazon.com.
