I downloaded a mp3 file from author's site (not itune store or audible), and I found that the book is not in iTune's Library/Books section, but in iTune as a song.
What is necessary to make the mp3 ebook is listed in itune's Library/Books section?

In many cases, improper tagging causes the files to go weird places. I suggest you create a smart playlist that shows you “new added” stuff:
I usually have the same problem with mp3 with dubious tagging.
iTunes is the solution that Apple offers to load content into iBooks if you don't want to perform that loading on the device itself.
I'm not aware of another product that does the same on a regular basis for easy set it and forget it syncing, but several others like PhoneView can read and write to the space iBooks uses to store content on iOS.

Best Answer
Right click the book in iTunes, and select Get Info (or select the track and Press Cmd-I)
iTunes will open the Info for the file. Goto the Options tab and change the Media Kind of the file from Music to Audio Book. It will then appear in the right place.
