Please add Turabian 9th Ed. Notes-Bibliography Stye for Citations
I am currently in my Masters of Divinity in Bible with Global Awakening Theological Seminary at Family of Faith Christian University. All writing is required in Turabian 9th Edition format Notes-Bibliography Style (not Author-Date). However, all logos offers is the Turabian 9th Edition is the Author-Date Style, which generates wrong citations for me that I cannot utilize. I would love to be able to use logos's feature of copying and pasting quotes into Word and automatically generating the citation; however, currently, I am not able as the correct citation style is not offered. One big reason I began using logos was to keep all my sources in one space and be able to generate citations quickly. I would LOVE it if you all could add this style in very soon pretty please :)!
Thank you! 😊

Great mention here, @Jessica Owens.
@Andrew Rigney or @Chris McMaster, do you know of a workaround here? Curious, given your involvement in higher ed.

@Jessica Owens Unfortunately, there's not a great option here at the moment.
If you use a reference manager like Zotero, I think that might save you the most time and give you some confidence in your citations. For example, you could export the resource information to Zotero in a BibTex or RIS citation style and have Zotero generate the citation information (it has Word plug-ins) as you write your paper.
Another option would be to select a different, but similar reference/citation style, but there would still be some manual work involved. SBL 2nd ed. is similar enough to the Turabian 9th bibliography style that you wouldn't have to make too many changes. This is where an ethical use of AI could come in handy (using AI to check your citation formatting, not to write the paper) to tidy things up.
Here's a link from the Logos for Education training page that could help give you some direction, specifically as it's related to the Zotero workaround:0 -
hello Andrew, thank you for your kind comment. I actually use Zotero so discovered that work around. However, the more books I buy on logos and read it would be such a blessing for this to be added. It’s a valuable tool that I paid for to use logos yet I can’t use it :) So a kind suggestion if logos can work to add this as they did the others in the near future I would be very grateful. I’ve seen others comment and post so it appears I’m not alone in the request. Many blessings to all that work hard on creating these things.

@Jessica Owens See the most recent v.39 update. It’s not quite the citation style you need, but it is closer to what you need!
