When I purchase a book on the Vyrso website, it is automatically imported into my Logos library and can be searched like any other book there.  Correct?

    Hi David, yes, it does. But keep in mind that Vyrso books don't have the quality of tagging that Logos books have, so, for example you may not be able to narrow searches to heading or footnotes in Vyrso books. But Scripture references are tagged in Vyrso books. Hope this helps.

    your question has been answered well. To elaborate slightly: "Vyrso" books are "bare bones" and are automatically converted from the publisher files. Scriptures are auto hyperlinked, which works well <most> of the time. The kinds of books which are generally found in Vyrso really don't benefit too much from becoming a "Logos" edition... Although there are exeptions. Since faithlife doesn't intend to carry two "editions" of a resource in their catalog, it almost doesn't matter. If I want a book badly enough to buy it, I ask if I want it in my Logos library. In most cases the answer is yes, so despite any inadequacy of the book in Vyrso, it is better than having the book in another format or not at all. 

    The good news? If faithlife migrates a book from Vyrso to Logos, users who own the former gain a copy of the latter.
