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.
The Video last month when pre-orders were being taken for the hardcover of Unseen Realm Expanded Edition, announced to us that the digital version was going to be released on October 1. I've not seen or heard anything from Logos about this.
Hi all Is there an easy way to add multiple anchors to a note at once. As far as I can see I can't paste in a list of verses in the usual format (eg Acts 9:1; 1 Peter 3:2...) or link to a passage list. Has anyone got any tips about how I can add multiple anchors at the same time? Thanks Paul
This should be easy, but it isn't. How can I determine how many books in my library have been downloaded to my hard drive? Additionally, how can I force the download of all books if I didn't select that option during the installation?
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. Unfortunately, the link provided (https://logos.com/LexhamPress) takes you to a Baker Books page with no obvious way to obtain the digital copy of…
I have always used the orange page numbers. Can I add them back into my book as I read?
