Suggestion: Each title of The Works of JE should include its volume number.

Thank you Logos for adding the Works to the Logos ecosystem. I am looking forward to making the best use of the valuable resource in the system for the maximum benefit to me and to them whom I could serve.

By the way, I have a couple of suggestions for the purpose.

1) Each title of the Works in Logos edition should include its volume number as the Yale WJE Online browsing page does, considering most of the secondary resources put their volume and page numbers such as "God's Excellencies," Works 10:425. Schafer dates this sermon to the summer of 1722, see Works 10:645."

2) The number of books on Edwards published in Logos is quite scanty, comparing to that of secondary publications on Edwards in the market. I think now is the time for you to increase the books on Edwards as the first batch of the Works has been published in Logos edition.

If I write this by missing something, any suggestion would be appreciated.

Thank you forum folks as always for your excellent responses.

Dear Hojune

Thanks for the suggestions. I have a couple of comments/questions:

In your first screen grab, what resource are you highlighting?
We'll look into your suggestion about incorporating the series and volume number into the resource title. This would have other implications so I'm going to be looking into other options as well. If I understand you correctly, your biggest wish would be to make the volume number more visible in the Library.
We're always on the lookout for more titles.

Hi Kyle,

Thank you for your kind and positive response.

The first screen shot is from a footnote page of the book I am reading, The Infinite Merit of Christ: The Glory of Christ’s Obedience in the theology of Jonathan Edwards by Craig Biehl.
That is correct. And I hope that the volume number would be visible not only in the library, but also in the command box as users type “Jonathan Edwards” while reading books with reference to the volume number. For example, as I type “Thomas Manton” in the box, it automatically shows several titles of his complete works with its volume number. And If I type his name with a specific volume number, it shows exactly the book what I want to open.
If Logos could increase secondary resources on Edwards along with adding more works of Yale edition with tagging with them, there would be no better environment than Logos in digging into the mine.
