New Loeb Classical Library Additions!

Deacon Steve

A new addition to the Logos' Loeb Classical Library is available on Community Pricing.

Letters of Basil the Great

I've decided to start at $45 (hoping more will join and go lower).

I have placed my bid too. Not only did they launch Basil but there are 5 more new CP launches today. They are bringing them out in significant numbers these days. It is hard to even keep track.

Thanks Steve for the heads up.  

Edit:  Steve, there seems to be something wrong with the link?

Bruce, what is the best way of "keeping track"?  Can we sign up for emails that announce a new CP?  Or, perhaps there's a section of the website we can check periodically?  

Thanks!

If you open the Logos website and click on your name there is an option to choose "Email Lists and RSS Feeds". From there you can choose the option "Community Pricing". Notice that there are many others as well. They update this list quite often and it is considerably longer than it used to be.

In addition what I do is have a tab in my browser that I check every few days. Even in spite of this it is easy to miss something. Hope that helps.

We’ve listed several Loeb Classical Library collections on community pricing over the past several months. Some have already shipped or moved from community pricing to pre-pub—others have not. I’m listing them here for everyone’s convenience. We have several collections to come; I’ll update this thread on the Noet forum as they become available.

The Loeb editions include either the original Greek or Latin text with an English translation. We’re going to be producing each Loeb volume as two resources—an original language edition and an English translation edition—for side-by-side comparison. Purchasing these collections on community pricing is a economical way to bring the major works of the ancient world into your Logos library. If you’re interested in better understanding the ancient world and the context in which the Bible was written, I can’t think of a better way of expanding your Logos library in terms of primary texts.

That is quite the list Mike. I think I've placed a bid on most of them. Any idea of the approximate number that you hope to offer in the end?

• http://www.logos.com/products/search?Status=Community+Pricing&start=&sort=newest&pageSize=60   (immediate)
• RSS   (used to be updated almost immediately, but has become rather slow the last few weeks)
• E-mail subscription   (very slow when I used it)

It's yet to be determined. When we post the final collection I'll let everyone know and tally the number then. [:)]
