I just found this out but you probably knew this already
I've always been frustrated that my library pull down didn't stay open after I selected a book. However, yesterday and by accident I selected a book but instead of using my left-hand button I used the middle. You know the one with the wheel and low and behold the library docks and stays open.
Nice.
mm.

Well I just now found out that I can select the Library icon with the middle button and it will open, dock and stay open until I get all the resources I want...
After more than 20 years of using Logos I'm still surprised with all that it can do!

CTRL+L will also open your library in a floating window if you like.

I wonder if it could do that 20 years ago!

Round about where I came in Logos Library System was replaced with Libronix. That would be approximately 2001. (Code name Titus IIRC).
Individual windows were a thing, or rather resource windows within the environment were. As far as I can remember - reopening a closed resource meant opening it again from the library.

Before my time (late-Libby), but LR inroduced 'tabs' half-way thru. I think you had to pay for it. It's (continuing) joy, was the tab panels often didn't quite line up, and re-opening a resource meant (and still means) another careful re-sizing the panel, to achieve a tab.
L4-8's sole benefit (per Libby of course) was the L4+ magical panel management routine. It's still quite amazing, as you add the 63rd tab (just one more!).

I'm feeling old realizing how long it's been around... I think I discovered it 13 or 14 years ago

Nope. But friends live there. We sold it to be used as a Christian retreat. When the kids grew up, we moved far, far away across the ocean, although Covid left us homeless in America not far from Bellingham (friends let us stay in a lovely little farm cottage). I hope to visit HQ one of these days, if they let me. Meanwhile, I am writing, writing writing. One book down and a handbook to the first is nearly finished.
