### 14.3 Generating a table of contents

DITA2Go produces a table of contents from a DITA bookmap or a ditamap file, following DITA rules. However, if you are creating a Help system such as HTML Help or Oracle Help for Java, a table of contents is produced automatically.by the Help system tool; so for Help systems you do not really need another TOC, unless you intend to use it as the default start page of your output.
