Note the change in categories make this not strictly comparable with previous charts built from the store sidebar counts.

    The percentage of resources with Logos denominational tags that are tagged for a particular tradition i.e. the counts on the left side of the store home page.

    Thanks for doing this, MJ.

    One important point. Collectors' edition isn't designed specifically for evangelicals, it's a general purpose package. A very large percentage of resources in Collectors are academic volumes that are not evangelical, and would be beneficial to a wide range of Christians. For example, the additions to Collectors' include  Feasting on the Word,  International Theological Commentary and Anchor Yale Bible, none of which are remotely evangelical, and hundreds of academic monographs from publishers like Sheffield Academic Press, T & T Clark, Magnes Press, Fortress Press and Eerdmans, the vast majority of which are not from evangelical authors.

    In fact, although the standard base packages up to about Gold are fairly well aligned with evangelicals, once you get above Gold, the packages become much more generalist. And the higher you go, the less (proportionately) evangelical content is included.
