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!

I want to check back and see what I actually paid for in the 2025 researcher library. Now that page does not even exist! How do I know that you actually give me what I paid for? How do I even know what was included? Please, someone from Logos get the page back up for our reference!
I am not so sure on how to navigate in the Logos community. How can I use it to help me in the study of the Word? How do use tags?
Can Bible Study Builder be used for a chronological study of the Gospels. If so please share some insights of how you would do this.
Has anybody used Voice Recognition to use Logos Bible. I have been using Logos Bible since 2008 but as I get older I am experiencing hand problems and am exploring Voice Recognition software. My desktop is on a Mac and I realize it has built in Voice Control but I am willing to spend money if there is something better. I…
With the new toolbar, I have lost some accessibility features. I use (Dragon DNS) dictation software and I used to have a voice command for linking and unlinking sets. In order to create a voice command, I need to know the shortcut keys for a function. Then I can create a voice macro and I can navigate hands-free. In the…
