It just occurred to me, If I own a book in my library, and that same book goes through an update, i.e. 2nd edition, does my logos book get updated or do I need to purchase the newest edition?
In general, we would need to purchase the updated edition as it is considered to be a separate resource.
I think there are cases where there have been updates to Bibles and these have been automatically applied.
It depends on the publisher. Most of the books I have purchased over the years that later came out when 2nd, 3rd, editions, etc., especially where there was a major ISBN number change, I had to re-buy the new versions. The publisher treats the Logos editions the name as print editions.
Occasionally you may find a publisher who releases a minor update/refresh to a book and pushes out the updates free of charge in the Logos editions. I've had that happen with a few of my Logos books.
One area where you may generally receive a free upgrade is eBook editions to Logos-tagged editions of the same book. There are books I bought under Vyrso/Faithlife eBooks/Logos eBooks that later upgraded the same title to Logos-tagged editions, and most of those I received a free upgrade to. This especially happened to a lot of my books during the Wordsearch transition.
Thanks a bunch for the reply! Now I know what to watch for.
Thanks for the clarification on this !! appreciate it.

I just noticed that the most recent update of my desktop Logos (legacy) has had the "fuzzy" search option removed, leaving only the option to subscribe for "Smart" search for other than "Precise" search. Is the former fuzzy search no longer available? If it still available, how to do I restore it as an option?
So with the recent (and welcome) changes to study assistant allowing you to only query your own books, I thought i'd create myself a collection of the commentaries, dictionaries etc I like. But the collections tool is hard to use - or am I doing something wrong? I can do a query like 'BST' and it shows me all the BST…
Are there any plans for the Smart search to include searching my Notes as well as my books/resources? I recently asked it specifically to search my Notes, in hopes of finding information I may have dealt with in the past, but it indicated that was not possible. Thanks for any update. Dennis Toll
Bibleworks allowed users to choose from portions of the Bible that had descriptive headers. Example: Exodus 2:1 - Birth and Youth of Moses Logos only lists chapters with no descriptive headings. How can I get the same function that Bibleworks offered in Logos?
I own The Babylon Talmud and Jerusalem talmud . Logos has not organized the volumns as are my hard copies. Im trying to find Yoma 39a. This info is vital in our sharing the Gospel.40 years before the distruction of the Temple the Red Rag never again turned white . The menorah would not stay lit and the doors of the Temple…
