Creating a Collection with Multiple Authors

Natan de Carvalho

Hi, I am trying to create a collection with multiple authors minus a few resources.

I thought this formula would work:

author:N. T. Wright AND James D. G. Dunn AND E. P. Sanders AND Don Garlington AND Scot McKnight -title:everyone

How do I add multiple authors in one collection?

Thank you!

With this string you are requesting only resources that are authored by all of these people - whereas I think you are looking for resources that are authored by any of them.

Try "author:("N.T. Wright", "James D. G. Dunn", "E. P. Sanders", "Don Garlington", "Scot McKnight") -title:everyone"

Is there any place I can learn about Logos' codes for research?

What do you mean by "Logos codes"?

WHen you run a search you are basically typing a code. A Bullean code that differs slightly and is more powerful than a Bullean code search on EBSCO for example. I want to know what are the parameters and how to combine them.

Have a look at https://wiki.logos.com/Search_HELP and the linked pages under “See Also”

Also there is a useful section on Searching in the Logos 7 helpfile which you should have in your Library

For collection creation, Library filtering is useful. Logos Help => https://ref.ly/logosres/logos4help?hw=Library+Filter+Fields includes:

Note: Help also includes Search. Logos and Verbum have many search options and nuances.

Logos wiki has => Library , => Collections , => Example Collections , and => Canonical Commentary Collections

A Bullean code that differs slightly and is more powerful than a Bullean code search on EBSCO for example.

Internet search for Bullean suggested similar sounding Boolean. Searching for Bullean in my Logos library had zero results while found many results for boolean.
