Creating a collection of my base library

Hi all,

I have the Platinum Library and am about to download the Perseus Collection. Before I do so am wondering if there is some way that I can create a collection that includes just the items included in the original library that I purchased?

Collections seem to be dynamic and so cannot use a criteria of "+*"...

I am a Logos newbie... so apologies if there is something simple here I am missing.

If the only thing you currently own is Platinum, then go to the library window, select all books, then click the (i) button and add a tag to all the resources (like "platinum"). Then you can use that tag when building a collection: mytag:platinum

Hi Ken,

Welcome to the Forum!

In the Rule box of collections, try: edition:logos ANDNOT perseus

Many Thanks Todd and Steve - both suggestions work as described. Much appreciated.... Had not figured out tags yet, so they look to be exceptionally useful!

They are useful, but Logos could use some work in the tag maintenance area. There's no way to rename or remove a single tag from multiple resources. You can only add a tag and clear all tags when more than one is selected.
