You can edit texts at the book level, or at the individual section level. See Texts' Structure for help. 

  • Edit an individual section to change the content of the text. Click the pencil icon next to items in the Table of Contents to begin. 
  • Edit the top section to change the metadata that applies to the entire text. Click Edit top section to begin. 

Why don't I see any text content when I click 'Edit top section'?

You can only edit the text content section by section. The top section may just be a placeholder that holds all the sections in the book. In this case, it won't hold any section content, though it may include metadata. See Texts' Structure for help.
