There are two types of "Digital Logos Editions": Reader Editions and Research Editions.

That's always been confusing. What else could a Digital Logos Edition be? A Digital Accordance Edition?
That's not meant to change it … just never understood what the point was. I can understand Reader vs Research.

So from what I can gather, there are 5 kinds of books you can have in your library.
1 and 2: Logos Editions
Research Editions have all the tagging, Reader Editions have some tagging but not as much.
3. eBooks.
eBooks have no tagging other than Bible verses.
4. Facsimiles. These aren't searchable, but are just page scans. Usually of older public domain books that maybe one day they'll get around to digitizing. These appear to only be accessible from the desktop, not on mobile.
5. Personal Books. Ones you've made yourself. Logos will automatically tag Bible verses (or anything that looks like a Bible verse!), but that's it.

Just a hunch as these designations were created before I worked here, but I imagine it's important to specify "digital" so that someone not familiar with Logos will not think they are buying a physical product. I know that when I worked for the other guys, we often had new customers call in wondering why their books had not arrived in the mail. This happened more often than you might imagine.

Well, my question did come from a customer that ordered CDs to the end (Libby, Libby, Libby, on the label, label, label).
Thank you.
