What exactly doesn't work?

Is there no "Save book" box on your Special:Book page?

Then please see the README.txt of the Collection extension about the  
necessary rights and enabling the write API of your MediaWiki.

Is a wiki page not recognized as saved collection?

* If you're using the newest version of the Collection extension: This  
feature has been "disabled" in the way that there's no longer a "Load  
collection" link in the "Print/export" portlet. Instead, a template  
[[Template:Saved_book]] should be utilized (the name of the template  
is adjustable via the system message [[MediaWiki:Coll- 
savedbook_template]]). See

   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Saved_book

for an example how this template could look like.

This template should be transcluded at the top of saved collection  
pages (this is done automatically if the collection has been saved  
using the [[Special:Book]] page).

These topics need yet to be covered by the README.txt, I've opened a  
ticket:

   http://code.pediapress.com/wiki/ticket/663


* If you're using an older version (with a "Create a book" porlet),  
make sure your collection page is contained in the category  
[[Category:Book]] (adjustable via system message [[MediaWiki:Coll- 
bookscategory]]).
