Any of the collections worth getting?
My basic recommendations:
Everyone should have
New to the Church fathers
Getting serious:
At this point is it mainly adding individual authors/volumes based on your interests - Chrysostom and Augustine are very common large blocks added. I tend to push Book of the Bee, Ephrem the Syrian, E. A. Wallis Budge …
I would recommend Church Fathers Definitive Collection (626 Resources) | Logos Bible Software but I suspect you are asking regarding smaller collections. Which are you looking at?
I was looking at the definitive collection, too. I just wanted to see if people had any good recommendations. I had the Church Fathers collection from an older base package. I think back then it was under 120 volumes.
thank you for the detailed response! I will have to mull it over.
It's funny, but I read @MJ. Smith's statement that "At this point is it mainly adding..." and read, "At this point is it mainly addicting…" which is also true. 😉
do you have any recommendations? Edit: i seen your newest post now.
On a more serious note than my last one, it may also be worth checking some of the legacy libraries. Some of MJ's recommendations I can get much cheaper as part of a legacy library than by themselves. Naturally, with dynamic pricing, YMMV.
thanks! I have a good portion of the church fathers from an earlier package.
Unfortunately, there are a number of publishers not available in Logos, often because the presses are so small they use lulu. For a hint of what I actually recommend, see Amazon Book Clubs. These are the books I recommend be added to Logos. Note Amazon is here being used as the source of a reading list not as a book seller.
Hard to believe that the Dictionary of Early Christian Beliefs is not included with any existing library or legacy library - not even in verbum. Therefore it’s an easy one to miss.
Such a helpful list!

On the desktop app, I cannot figure out how to have the text scroll smoothly. I have an iPad running iPadOS 16.7.10 (nearly four years old) and it can scroll through the text smoothly, whether it's a Bible or a resource. But on the desktop app, the text skips several lines and it seems to be designed that way. Here's a…
I just watched a recorded webinar on using Collections. It was a good webinar, and it made me want to start creating and using collections. Unfortunately, I have no idea what I would do with a collection. The webinar demonstrated how a collection could be searched. That is not something I would find useful. What else can…
I have a few hundred personal books and I want to move to a new system which I think means rebuilding the personal book library. I am assuming that I have to add them one at a time. My question is: is there a way to print out a master list of what I have already, with titles, author names, and the files referenced? I could…
Hi- I am trying to set up a reading plan for "The Bible Recap: A One Year Guide…" I can't get a new reading plan to start Jan 1st, with the first reading session. It wants to include introduction and contents page. Also, it breaks in the middle of pages, not at the beginning and ending of sessions for each day's reading.…
