A huge improvement to Logos would be a fully integrated kindle reader - so user's logos and kindle libraries could be used seamlessly together.

    I don't think that's feasible, there are open source projects that are trying to do similar things and having issues... Having Logos Developers attempt to tackle something others are doing(and hitting walls with things like the DMCA laws) wouldn't be a good use of time or money.

    As an alternative, try to find a free way to export your kindle library to docx(you can import that into Logos)
    When you find a way to do that, then logos dev's might be able to look at that source and implement something similiar into Logos... it's not as simple as copy & paste because again copyright laws.

    It would be a great help for me to integrate my kindle reader with logos. Otherwise I still have to maintain 2 systems - and kindle does some things much easier and better than logos. Great idea, Rob.

    Yes perhaps not workable but I hate the fact that I have to buy books twice. It would sure be nice if that could happen.

    L10 now allows a user to place an icon in the taskbar that opens the kindle reader app. The "Add print resources" allows search to seek resources that exist as Logos books that are in your kindle, PDF and dead tree libraries

    It would be great if i could download my books to a kindle paperwhite. It’s not my preferred reader, but having it as an option would be stellar!!

    I love this idea.  I purchase books on Kindle only when they aren't available in Logos.  Logos really is home base for me.  Recently I saw a resource I have on the Kindle (because it's not available on Logos) cited in a footnote in a Logos resource.  Of course I couldn't just click on the page number in the footnote to open the resource; I had to open the Kindle app, and the Kindle doesn't show page numbers for the book in question, so....
