If the audiobook is on a CD ( a physical CD), use iTunes to rip it into your iTunes Library. Once in your Library, the book will appear as music, so you will need to select all the tracks on the "book" and change the media type to Audiobook.
Once in your iTunes Library as an Audiobook, you may want to check that chapters etc. are displayed the way you prefer. If not, now is the time to edit the audiobook. Then copy it to your iPod using your normal method.
That was a very brief summary. I realise that there may be points in my post that you are not familiar with, but I have no knowledge of your current familiarity with iTunes. If there are points that you don't understand, post back here and we'll try to resolve them.
