Bible Dictionaries

I am using Logos 4. When I use the tools for Bible Places or Bible Things and I want to click on the Dictionaries for more information my Bible Places and Bible Things screen only shows that I have the New Bible Dictionary. Actually, I have multiple Bible Dictionaries in my Libray - but they do not show up in Bible Places and Bible Things. Is there a way to get my other Bible Dictionaries to show up in these two tools. Thanks for any help.

Paul,

I don't know what other Bible dictionaries you have but in the screenshot below you can see that in my case I have links to seven dictionaries for Emmaus. We do not have any control over the settings within this tool.

Hi Mark,

Thank you for the post. I have many other dictionaries - but none of them show up like yours.

Would you mind listing the ones you have?

What do you get for Emmaus?

The use of dictionaries appears to be similar to Topics in Basic Search (see http://community.logos.com/forums/p/11747/91883.aspx). However you can use Parallel Resource sets to move through your other dictionaries (or right and left arrow keys).

For Emmaus and for everything else I only get NBD. I also have Easton's Bible Dictionary, Holman Illustrated Bible Dictionary, Harper's Bible Dictionary, Nelson's New Illustrated Bible Dictionary, and several others. They don't come up no matter what I search for in Bible Places and Bible Things.

Unfortunately, most of those resources have not (yet) been tagged in a way that allows them to show up in Bible Places or in the topic search. The number of dictionaries included in those places is increasing, but rather slowly.

kinda weird. I get results similar to Mark, but the last three ordered differently. I thought it might have to do with prioritization, but checking my prioritized list, I don't see how my results correlate.

It's not connected with Prioritization - see the link I provided earlier.

what is odd is that Mark and I have the same resources listed, but in different order--on the same search term. Not going to lose sleep over it--just an observation. (i did read your link, thanks.)
