Fred, I've been trying unsuccessfully to contact Words of the Pioneers. I will keep at it because everything they have would be of interest to Logos. Although most of their content is in the public domain, they could perhaps make it quicker and easier for me to get into the Logos system.

Yes, the dissertation series is an excellent resource that I'm working on securing. Thanks for yet another great suggestion!

Perhaps the White Estate could help? Or maybe?

Today is Aug 3. Started on one on the Words of the Pioneers' works on July 22 [12 day's work and am only one quarter done] and 4500 minutes of editing. Yes, please get the Words of the Pioneers into Logos. [Other threads speak of the expense of Logos resources - take a 300 page file and prepare it as a tagged PBB with 1000 footnotes. - How much would you be willing to pay someone to do that for you? At minimum wage I have put $600 into this edit and have 75% more to do]

Good idea, David. We are discussing with the White Estate getting their entire galaxy of writings into the Logos system, obviously beginning with the re-tagged writings of EGW.

David your point is very well made. I have tagged works for my own personal use and know how long it takes me. If only the grumblers would try tagging something themselves they might not winge quite so much. After all, no one forces us to patronize Logos!

Your dedication is amazing, David. Actually, Logos has its own system of preparing books for digitizing and tagging, under a contract in an amazingly efficient and productive arrangement. I'm not directly involved in that process. My role is to bring in new resources and then help facilitate their marketing.

Has anyone mentioned the late Dr Edward Heppinstall's 3 books Our High Priest, Salvation Unlimited and The Man Who Is God? All pub by R & H but out of print.
Written on a relatively popular level I am not sure how they are regarded now. Any one any thoughts on these?

Not familiar with the other two, but i definitely remember interacting with "Our High Pries" would be interested in getting that one.

Lynden yesterday I just I downloaded the SDA Sabbath School Quarterly and converted it to MS Word and imported it into a Personal Book. It works great for looking up the texts and reading the Quarterly. I'll try it this week and see how I like it. So far so good. What do you use for an abbreviation for the SSQ? Something Like SSQ1306?
What about a Bible Studies Set like Seminars Unlimited, Storicles of Prophecy, or the Discovery Bible Studies set. We could then print them and share them instead of having to buy a whole set each time. Many people don't follow through to the end with a study series.

I usually name the lesson the theme for that week or quarter. Someone has already converted it, you may want to check out this faithlife group. https://faithlife.com/adult-bible-study-guide/activity

Felipe and John, thanks so much. This book was off my radar screen. But anything published by SBL from an Adventist deserves prime attention. I'll add it to my list.
Licensing is always a potential issue. I can't be specific because of delicate negotiations, but please pray with me that all the wonderful resources suggested in this forum and elsewhere can be co-licensed with the publisher for inclusion either in a base package or an add-on library bundle (for the sake of discounted resources for pastors as well as sales volume for publishers--win-win!). Logos does have excellent working relationships with publishers, and we need to see that expanded to completely cover our SDA market.
I'm working hard to be "worthy" of representing you all here at Logos. I feel the responsibility very deeply and appreciate your prayer support.

In early July Oxford University Press announced that it would publish a new biography of Ellen Gould Harmon White. In 18 chapters prepared by 20 authors Ellen Harmon White: American Prophet examines her ideas and the impact she has made on the Seventh-day Adventist church and American religion generally....
is it already published? or on the point to be published?
who wrote the book? how many articles will be in the book?
Somebody knows more about it?
Saw the book on amazon http://www.amazon.com/Ellen-Harmon-White-American-Prophet/dp/0199373868/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&sr=&qid=

I have this book on my list of desired acquisitions. I hope we can get it from Oxford--thanks for the recommendation.
BTW, yesterday we prepared the product page posting for the new EGW Encyclopedia from the R&H. It will soon go up on pre-pub.

A shame this link can not be on the product page but I don't think this is ever done.

Dr. Weber, I would like to add another one. I have not gone through this entire thread so I don't know if this book has already been suggested. Anyhow, the book:
Altar Call By Dr. Roy Gane. I think Diadem is the publisher in Berrien Springs MI. Anyhow, great book and it needs to be on Logos. This book is tremendous in Sanctuary truth and for exegetical purposes, this man knows this subject very well and would great to have this work.
Shalom...

Thanks! I've added this to my list of desired acquisitions.

I was looking for one of Dr Gane's book
And I found this
Zondervan Illustrated Bible Backgrounds Commentary: Old Testament
Roy E. Gane (Ph.D., University of California, Berkeley), Leviticus
I knew he did wrote the NIV Application Commentary: Leviticus, Numbers. But I did not know that he wrote also for another commentary set
