One of the wonderful aspects of logos is the plethora of ways to take notes.  However, i am wondering if anyone has a methodology that they suggest or if they can point me in the right direction regarding how to pull all these features together for recording one's research.  I would love to see how people are doing this for topical studies and expository studies.  Thanks in advance for your suggested helps.

    I use Logos note-taking almost exclusively and have developed my own system and it works for me.

    Most of my fellow Logos users and colleagues tend to create a note document for every book of the bible, another for thematic/topical studies and lastly one for highlights. Within each note document they create their respective notes. That is the most granular and in my opinion organised method for making notes, however it is also the most complex and can lead to a lengthy note list.

    Personally i've tried to simplify that method by creating a document for Notes from OT Books, another for Notes from NT Books and lastly one for Notes from Thematic/Topical Studies (see screenshots). Within each note document resides all my notes for the particular category (OT, NT and Thematic/Topic).

    Your mileage may vary but i would recommend using the former method initially and over time you would form your own methodology for taking notes that is suitable to you.

     

    Hope this helps
