"Partially" as a criteria in the Library....

Am I wrong or used to be there "partially" as a search criteria in the Library, on logos.com in the "Ownership status?

I'm looking for a way to see those volumes of Commentaries I own partially, e.g. 3 out of 45 I do not own.

    It was experimental on the 'old' Logos.com

    Thanks! That's a bummer.

    Christoph - I too wish I could view "partially owned" series. My coding days are almost half a century behind me, so I don't really know, but it seems that that would be such a simple thing to code. Also, FL could send marketing stuff to users noting that "you are missing three out of XX books in the such-and-such Series!" and then brag about the resulting dynamic price on what's left.

    I get that I can filter for a series in a Library tab, and then flip from "Library" to "Add to Library," and see whether I'm missing anything, and I can do that for each series I own, starting with the one with the most books or other resources I own. But still it would be nice to sort for partially owned series and see them all at once. I own a lot of series….

    If I remember right, the Partially (Un)Owned spit out any sets (and individual volumes) for which you had one (or at least a few, anyway). It meant lots of results to wade thru.

    It wasn't Thomas-coded.

    Exactly. That was my thought! Makes it much easier for the customer and more sales for FL!
    An extra plus would also be "denomination",…
