This isn't what I meant and it's my fault for not making it clear. I
had read your statement:

I was concerned about overlap of content and didn't like the idea of
calling this a "book". But I suppose that if the parts all fit
together it could be a "virtual-book". Thus I thought that if it's
not really a book it should be given another name.
