The easiest way to create a CSV file is with Excel or Numbers or Google Sheets. The CSV file must be formatted in a specific way. Please see[ this article](https://mooberrydreams.gitbook.io/mooberry-book-manager-v5/mooberry-book-manager.helpscoutdocs.com/article/119-importing-from-a-csv-file) for more information. If you have the Custom Fields extension, and your custom fields are in the CVS file, they will be imported as well. If you have the Multi-Author extension, and your authors are in the CSV file, they will be imported as well. ### Export Books to CSV If you are moving your books to another website, you can use this to export all your book information into a CSV file. Then you can go to your new site and import from the CSV file. If you have the Custom Fields extension, your custom fields will be exported as well. If you have the Multi-Author extension, your authors will be exported as well. ### Import Books This is the original import function that Mooberry Book Manager included.
