=== Types ===
When specifying a type for a literary work, stick to the most generic type only. For example, [[An Accountability of Virtue]] is both a '''book''' and a (romance) '''novel''', but for the purposes of this template it is of the same type as [[Shadows Remembered]] - a book.
 
Applying a category to the type is not necessary, but if you can find one in the list of [[:Special: Categories|category]], use it.
 
'''Note:''' do not use <code><nowiki>{{cat tag|books}}</nowiki></code>. [[:Category:Books]] is for the books written by [[Brandon Sanderson]], not in-world literature.
 
=== Categories & Tags ===
Pages that make use of the ''{{t|Literature}}'' template will be added to [[:Category: Literature]].
