AYB: Lost Sheep Edition

Just the continuing saga of the Logos.com search process.

I THOUGHT I had all the AYB volumes. But, nooooo. Only when I re-found Verbum Biblicum Standard (an unbelievable collection), did I notice a lost sheep! AYB Amos 2017.

So, I typed in Anchor Yale Bible, selected the suggested AYB, and then un-owned (see below). No lost sheep in sight.

Then, I went to AYB Amos, selected the series name, un-owned and kazaam! The lost sheep!! Baaaah! Logos.com is so fun.

Did you choose AYB(90 vols.)?

Edit: Oh. I now see what you mean! Logos is so cryptic.

I only see it among the Verbum Biblicum Standard package and as a sole resource listed by author. What is Logos up to?

Fact: The Biblicum is short for the Pontifical Biblical Institute think research and postgraduate education. The Biblicum packages are designed to meet the needs of their students. Speculation: It may be that Logos/Verbum only has limited rights to the resource e.g. for Biblicum products/students only. Moral: check the actual resource.

I don't think so, seems freely available: https://www.logos.com/product/165395/amos-a-new-translation-with-introduction-and-commentary

The point is that the title doesn't have the (AYB) in it, and it's a new book from 2017 that has not been put into the AYB bundle, that's all. EDIT: it does come up when looking for the publisher, or when using the series facet for the AYB commentaries

Yes ... when I found it in Biblicum, the only immediate clue was squinting at the cover. Scrolling down, of course, the series. But it suggests they search the title, and description, but not series.

I couldn't figure out the connect of Brown's and Fitzmyer's volumes (above image).

Yes, exactly. I reported your issue in the Logos.com forum for better visibility, and came to the same conclusion as you.

Not sure how the text search can be improved, other then adding the series to the title of the volume, but perhaps FL will have other ideas on how to resolve this search vs. filter issue.
