Can someone please help me understand what the difference is between the Logos Reasearch books and others in the digital library?
The definitions below are from Logos.com:
Ebooks on the Logos platform come as is from the publisher and are designed to be read cover to cover. Links to Bible verses and books will appear in searches, but they have minimal tagging to help you stay focused as you need.
Logos Editions are powerful because they connect to the tools in Logos Bible Platform. Our team tags every book with important information, like topics covered, biblical events mentioned, and theological ideas explored. That means all you have to do is search Logos, and it scans your library, instantly connecting you to relevant information from across all your books.
Two Types of Logos Editions
Logos Research Editions come with our most detailed interlinking. We catalog topics discussed, Scripture references, theological concepts, bibliographic info, citations, and so much more. Then we connect them to Logos tools so you can access essential info in seconds flat.
Logos Reader Editions are designed to be read cover to cover. We tag Scripture references and some other basics, but forgo the robust treatment given to reference works. This drastically speeds up production, which often enables us to release them the same day as print.

Some context to your struggle to understand the distinction between Logos edition types would help me provide you with a more satisfying answer.
Simply stated the Logos Edition type Research Edition is that resource that receives the full benefit of Logos tagging and linking a process that AFAIK has not been thoroughly described, random e.g.
https://www.logos.com/product/7371/conflict-and-community-in-corinth-a-socio-rhetorical-commentary-on-1-and-2-corinthians?queryId=46a41e15b8da5d2307e328de2359b9be
Click on "Learn More" and read the explanation provided for the Logos Editions. The final type is an Ebook it gets little to no extra processing. It is meant purely for reading, but some of these receive processing as Logos Editions after they have been added to the Logos catalog.
I mix up ebooks and reader editions (both cover to cover).

You're a step away from being an MVP; you're not allowed to be confused by Logos descriptions.
Well, it's because, as an example, research editions, you're not required to read cover-to-cover. All these rules!

I have always assumed the answer is Yes, but in recent months I have reported the same typos several times for one of the KJV Bible resources, and keep finding the same typo again several months later (in a repeating cycle of Psalms readings I have set up). Can anyone from Logos confirm whether fixing typos is still done?…
I tried to use the ESV Audio Bible in class today and it says it couldn't access the media. I am online and I tried to "download the media", but there is no option to do that. This is the first time I tried this after upgrading to the subscription service. My system is up to date and online…
I'm using the recent tablet version, but unless I'm connected to wifi I can't even search my top Bible. I couldn't find anything about it in the 'help'. Am I doing something wrong?
1/18/26. 8:48am NASB (1995) Bible Continuing to study Romans. I've done so before and highlighted much of the text but now I find many of my highlights have disappeared and much of the text is randomly "highlighted" with yellow. Very random phrases, all yellow highlights. When I drag over the word or phrase highlighted in…
I used the highlight panel to change the color of the text. I want to change it back to black but I can't find a way to do that.
