    Hi Ian - and welcome to the forums

    I received new book and want to add to library. How?

    Assuming you have "default" settings it should download automatically.

    If is hasn't try typing the command update now in the command box. You can open the command box by clicking the Logos icon at the top left of the Logos screen.

    If that doesn't resolve it, please check your Internet settings (in Program Settings). How do your settings compare with mine below?

    Graham, from his subject line, I think he was asking about how to add a new "print version" book he received to his library.

    Ian, you will want to use the Print Library feature, which is explained in this video: https://www.logos.com/features/print-library-catalog

    As far as I can tell, you can only add books to your print library if they are books that Logos carries in its catalog. I.e., you can't add everything you own in print. There would be no point anyway, since the point of the "print library" feature isn't so much to help you organize a list of all the theological books you own as to let you search through ones you own only in print, and Logos can only do that for you if they carry those books. Their ulterior motive, of course, is to encourage you to buy the digital version from them if you find that the book contains information you're researching. But if you own the print book, you can use the search results to look up those page numbers, so it would still be useful for you.
