Adding personal ebooks to Logos

Jodi Denning

Is it possible to add my personal ebooks (Kindle and Nook) to Logos?

Thanks

Not directly - you have to convert them to MS Word docx format and compile them as a Personal Book.

Hi Jodi:

Here is a link to a couple of my tedious blog posts that discuss format-shifting for Personal Books:  http://jnthreethree.blogspot.com/search/label/Logos%20Bible%20Software 

A later development with Calibre (after I wrote the posts) is that it now converts directly to the Word .docx format, with generally very good results.

If you're interested in adding some public domain works to your library, you can also check out this link:  the Wiki article listing user-contributed files for Personal Books:  https://wiki.logos.com/User_Contributed_Personal_Books . And you can also monitor the Files subform for more recent contributions that might not be catalogued in the Wiki:  https://community.logos.com/forums/66.aspx
