Seeking prolific authors' titles within Legacy Libraries

Pete De Bonte

• Jay Adams is a good example of this problem:

1. From this Logos.com search, there seem to be 70 Legacy Libraries that include works by Jay Adams.
2. From this Logos.com search, there seem to be 159 English single-titles resources by Jay Adams.

How can I find which and/or how many of his titles are in some particular Legacy Libraries of interest?

Last week, I submitted a suggestion that would solve this problem, but especially with "Up to 50% Off Legacy Libraries" at the moment, is there any workaround?

My goal was flawed

∵ The "Biblical Commentaries" category dominates Logos Libraries (Legacy or otherwise)
(To see that yourself, click the "Collapse all" link above any library contents table, e.g. the 2025 Libraries table)
∴ in any Library, the price/value of commentaries will tend to overwhelm the value of any particular author's works.

The original example (Jay Adams)

I did find L9 Sliver to be a good value for Jay Adams' works, but I believe that it was economical only because of:

• my dynamic discount, to some extent, e.g. I already owned all the Bibles and partial commentaries.
• but mainly because it contained his commentary series (not his many monographs)

Conclusion: Libraries aren't good for monographs

It seems that if you don't already own or aren't interested a Library's commentaries, it probably isn't economical for you. The only exception I found was a Starter Library with $27 resource of the "Collected Essays" type: that made the Library price attractive. Regardless, it still seems that Libraries aren't typically going to be a good strategy for collecting monographs.
