In this webinar, national presenter Jon Haley and Logos Pro Michel Pauw discuss books, libraries, legacy libraries, commentaries, journals, biblical language tools and resources, and much more. The focus is not so much on what you can do with Logos, as it is on what you can do with your resources in Logos.
Throughout the webinar, we share numerous power user tips & tricks, so make sure you watch the recording through the end.

Thanks so much for taking the time to make this. Very helpful on my own journey in expanding my library.

Really enjoyed this webinar (I watched the recording). I took advantage of the discount and grabbed Platinum Library Upgrade to my Logos 10 package and signed up for the Newsletter and requested to join the Facebook page. Thank you for the discount and all the wonderful information. The more I see Logos in action by those who are much smarter, I see I have such a long way to go...:D

[@buecherleser2600]

Great Insights again! In your list of prioritized books I saw some custom made section headlines. Could you quickly explain how to create such?

[@michelpauw]

I'll try to do that. Make sure to subscribe to my channel to see a future video covering exactly that.

[@Dennis-qb1fs]

Extremely helpful, thank you!

Thanks to you both. I like to use journals more often in Logos for pastoral purposes. Since most of the journal bundles are still quite expensive to buy, what are you thinking about the subscription model? What are the pros and cons?

[@michelpauw]

I don't think the new subscription model will bring an alternative for buying journals. However, the cool thing that I have experimented with, is that AI will be able to summarize a journal article pretty neatly.

[@andrease8228]

@@michelpauw thanks Michel. Yes that's interesting about the subscription of AI and other features. But I have a subscription of a journal package in mind. Here you pay a fee for one year (ca 50 $) and have access to several journals. You can work with the journals, but you do not own them. I ask myself should I spend 500 $ for ownership or is it wiser to rent for 10 years.

[@michelpauw]

@@andrease8228 Personally, I don't like subscription models, as I don't like rentals. If you purchase the journals, they will be yours. You will likely use them more than a couple of years. And if you decide to not use them anymore, you can sell them again, and get most of your investment back.

[@michelpauw]

@@andrease8228 But again, I'm quite positive that journals will not be included in the subscription model. What I know is that some 400 basic resources are included in the subscription. Logos will continue to offer the rest of their resources through normal sales.

[@chrissielbeck49]

I love the clicking on the study button tip. I do know you could that either.

[@russemrick5268]

The legacy editions have a strong disclaimer that they are"without features and datasets." I have no idea what that means and dispite research haven't gotten an answer. I haven't purchased a legacy library because of this confusion. I was hoping to get that here. Otherwise your video was very helpful. Thank you.

[@michelpauw]

No need to worry. I have purchased lots of legacy libraries. The point they make is that the Legacy Libraries are "only books". They do not contain any features (as do the Logos 10 libraries). However, the books from the Legacy Libraries work EXACTLY the same in your Logos library as any other book in your library.
