Lists of Books in Library

Logos appears to work well with in depth searches but what about a broad searches of my liberty?

I wanted a list of my Bibles- can't do  If I had a list it would allow me easily to link the ones I like best.

I wanted a list of my commentaries. can't do

Older versions of Logos would allow me to easily put my library is an order I prefer. 

Shouldn't Logos list its library content in groups of some kind??

    There are a couple of ways of doing this.

    If you click on the "type" column in your Library 

    the software will group your resources by type

    Clicking on a grouping will open it and just show resources of that type

    Alternatively, back on the first screen, you can use "filters" to limit what is displayed - again using the "type" field

    For more background see the Logos 6 helpfile the Logos wiki 

    Does this help at all?

    Logos 6 Documents has Bibliography, which allows citations to be added from "a collection" using Library filters: e.g. Bibles without Manuscripts, Targums, Dead Sea Scrolls

    Commentary resources have two types: "Bible Commentary" and "Commentary" so filter of type:commentary includes both.

    Personally added tag of BibleGrid to a subset of Bibles:

    FYI: added year prefix to short and long titles of many Bibles so Text Comparison using a collection sorts in chronological order.

    Collection "Bible Grid Favorites" has rule MyTag:BibleGrid that is useful for Bible Search with Grid Results:

    Logos wiki has => https://wiki.logos.com/Example_Collections with example groups of resource collections.
