If you got the new Pliny volumes (CP I think), you might want to rename them before they disappear into your library.

They've got the unique title 'Letters'. logosres:lttrsplinyyngr;ref=VolumePage.V_1,_p_iii

    Denise, how are you suggesting these be renamed?

    I don't know the Logos rules, especially for the Noet-y folks.  I assume they use the hardcopy title (which I assume is 'Letters').

    But for Logosians, it's easy enough just to add 'Pliny the Younger' on the front and be done with it.  Not being critical or anything.

    OT: If I'd been Trajan, I'd have fired the guy (Pliny). Goodness what a loser (though well educated).  But alternatively, Trajan was an unbelievable micro-manager. That might have been his success.  It is kind of funny of Pliny having problems with burning towns, and Trajan more concerned about rebellious firemen!

    I'm not sure why I would need to do this. I just type Pliny in the L5 library search and this is what I get.

    I'm kind of old fashioned.  I read the title.

    "To Each His Own, eh?!"                      Peace and Every Blessing!                       Thanks for the "heads up," for me, Denise ...   I sort of like organising even when it doesn't really need organising ....                                    *smile*

    ...  ahhhHHaaa!    Now, Bruce ...             I see your point ...

    I guess I could spend so much time organising that I wouldn't spend enough time reading ???    *smile*

    I have often thought the same thing Milford! [:)]

    That is already an issue for me. I still have a backlog of 80 unread messages in my Logos email folder which are notices of this or that new pre-pub being available for download or new Vyrso title having been bought. I reference these emails when I go through my tagging process, so that I can mark when I bought resources and what bundle they were part of. It gets so tiresome I get way behind on it.
