how to delete a book stored on my app?

Ed Fernandez

As some of you might know, I have been wrestling lately with the time it takes to open Logos .

I know the books will remain in my account (or not)

How do I delete books I dont read or have little or no interest in?

Thank you!

You can Hide them as per https://community.logos.com/kb/articles/970
They will be removed from your computer after a restart. But beware that they can only be restored one at a time.

Hiding or leaving books in the cloud has little effect on the startup time.

Logos doesn't allow you to delete books and removing them from your local installation simply offloads them to the cloud. The solution? Hide unwanted books. Using Program Settings, you can quickly and easily hide books so they don’t appear in your Library, Search, etc.

Remove books from the Library using any of the following options: Right-click a book and select Remove from device. Open the Library's information pane by clicking the on the upper right and ensure that the Information tab is selected, click the book to select it then click Downloaded > Remove from device. In Tile View, click the more actions icon for any book and select Remove from device.

Received my copy of the expanded edition hardcover version today and noticed that one of the introductory pages states it's possible to add a digital copy of this book to Logos.

Is it possible to create a Passage List from a Notebook collection?
Hi, I'm wondering if it's possible to create a Passage List from a list of scriptures tied to a Notebook collection. I've created several notebooks with a lot of scriptures in each. I'd like to ALSO have those scriptures in Passage Lists. Is that easy to do in one fell swoop? Thanking you in advance!
