===Communication=== Mass communication in the BookWorld is provided by footnoterphones and mobilefootnoterphones. Messages from others appear as footnotes in the text, the "number" of a footnoterphone being the chosen character's book, chapter, page number, paragraph, and line in a book. Connection between phones is created by hidden tunnel conduits that are invisible in the book, such tunnels spanning distances between other books and other genres. Connections can be crossed and filtered out using "textual sieves", which filter out all incoming text. Junkfootnoterphones are the "spam" messages of BookWorld, frequently appearing in the Well of Lost Plots. News is also put over footnoterphones, which can be turned on and off at will. Newspapers are the second choice for receiving news in BookWorld. The primary newspaper in the BookWorld is called ''The Word''. Specific newsletters, such as ''Moveable Type'', the official newsletter of [[BookWorld#Jurisfiction|Jurisfiction]], may apply to certain groups of characters.
