Jack,

Just curious. Do you use LO's master document system for your books?

I've written fourteen books and used LO for every one. Now I write
fiction, so I my books don't tend to use complicated layouts. The
important thing to understand is that you will need to use a tool like
Calibre to covert the LO-generated HTML file to .mobi and .epub. With
Calibre you can generate a TOC and the like.

Hope that helps.
