What would you say is the best tool for reading monograph.
Notes Tool and why?
Clippings and why?
Hi Lukas —
It comes down to personal preference and what you are using the notes or clippings for. I use highlights/notes when I want to see something in context. I highlight using a color of preference for the type of highlight so that they stand out in my notebooks (yellow for monographs, green for Bible, etc.). Then if I make a note, I will also put my own searchable inline tag, though you can use Logos tags for this. My current inline tags are: .insight .concept .claim .? .zettle .quote. The reason I use inline tags is that I export these highlights and notes to Capacities to combine them with Kindle, Snipd and other highlights from Readwise. The inline tag is universal in all services that I use, so I can do global searches in my exported highlights regardless of which platform they came from.
I use clippings when I want to build quotes with ready-made citations that I plan to use in my writing. (papers, talks, posts) I do this when I need clear quotations with page refs. I don't use them so much now that I am not engaged in formal studies. I think of clippings like the old-style note cards we used to use in University. When I used them to write papers, I would export all my clippings to DevonThink, along with other books I had been reading, and then I would start building my papers from these cards. In this use case, clippings were better than highlights for more formal outputs.
Experiment and play with both… I personally would love it if Logos would allow us to sync highlights to Readwise like Kindle does, but for now, it is a manual operation for me.

I am planning to build a library for my son. I already purchased some packages but he doesn’t have access to basic stuff like Greek/Hebrew word look up. How can I purchase this feature. He doesn’t need cloud based features and I am not looking for subscription
I somehow turned off Link Set - How do I turn it back on? I was trying to find out how to show parallel resources in Logos, and I ended up somehow turning off Link Set, at least, as a visible option. How do I get that option back as visible?
I have a couple of books that always crash Logos. I read the books a while ago and created Notes while reading, but if I try to go to the Note anchors in the books in question, Logos crashes. Same if I try to open them in the Library. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
I needed to restart Logos, and now when I tried to do an "All" search, that AI thing is there. How do I get rid of it?
Below is one of the new temporaryresources that downloaded this morning. I searched for it in Logos bookstore and could not find it as I wanted to see the price and got no results. Will I be able to purchase his?
