    Whilst it is not a 'book' in the sense that I believe you mean, I had to make special arrangements for the New International Version of the Bible to be available through Wordsearch.  Can I be assured that it will be in my Logos account when the migration is complete.  The NIV is the 'standard' bible where I minister: without it as part of the Faithlife community I would be stranded.

    God bless you and encourage you,

    The NIV has been unlocked in Logos for Wordsearch customers who owned it, and it's available now. If you look at https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/library-migration (your personal migration page), you will see the resources that are already available to you in Logos.

    I don't know what you mean by "special arrangements". If it wasn't unlocked like a regular Wordsearch resource, then it may not have been part of the licenses that were transferred from Wordsearch to Logos. Please take a look at that page and see if it shows up for you.

    buy a package of resources (book) and/or features

    Mike, this may be misleading and cause unmet expectations.  It is possible to purchase a L9 Library and not purchase features/datasets. in this case One would NOT get access to L9 engine until the Spring 2021 release of the core engine.

    With so many new users coming over from Wordsearch, it is important to clarify the difference between  Engine, Library and features/datasets. I've read several disappointments from people who bought feature (Counseling Guide) without an appropriate library and they have been disappointed. I have also read posts from people who purchased a library without features (Sermon Manager) and they also have been disappointed.

      It appears that the Wiersbe Bible Exposition Commentary for the Old Testament is missing - will it be added soon?  Thanks.

    Logos has the New Testament in one volume called the Bible Exposition Commentary, but the Old Testament is in the same individual volume configuration that WS had. I know, it 's confusing. So check to see if you have the individual volumes.

    1. The Complete Biblical Library Interlinear Bible - with the accompanying greek and hebrew libraries from the Complete Biblical Library series. I like that when I click on the links in this interlinear - it opens up the excellent word study of the Complete Biblical Library dictionaries. 

    2. Adult Questions for Lessonmaker - This is the best tool on earth for getting good questions from any chapter of the Bible!

    Everyone seems to want the Thompson Chain Reference Bible. I am waiting for that one too. Most of my WordSearch resources seem to have already been migrated to my Logos Library. Faithlife is doing a great job with that. That was a major factor in my decision to purchase a Logos 9 upgrade. Thank you!

    The range of products I've been using through WordSearch has been quite helpful for surveying the field of literature, and I'm pleased to be able to add the benefits Logos brings to the mix. Such books as the following enhance the ability to survey the literature when producing small group/Sunday School literature:

    NICOT

    Bible Speaks Today

    Brown-Driver-Briggs Hebrew-English Lexicon

    Expositor's Bible Commentary (new)

    Thanks!

    I don't understand why we have to purchase an upgrade to use what we already purchased. 

    You don't! Your old Wordsearch app still works as it did before the buyout in October. Faithlife has committed to making all of the Wordsearch Library available in L8. The L9 engine (minus the extra features/datasets) will be made available free of charge in early 2021.

    L9 is being offered as an OPTIONAL upgrade for those who would like new Features/datasets like the Counseling Guide, the Sermon Manager, Dark Mode & enhanced Factboook. These are not "what we already purchased"

    I had several volumes of the New American Commentary in my Wordsearch library.  Only one (Matthew) has migrated over to Logos.  I called to inquire and was told that several of my volumes were from the LifeWay reader library and only the Matthew volume was from Wordsearch (which was owned by LifeWay).  I don't understand the difference and I am missing the other volumes of the NAC set.  I didn't have a complete set of NAC but I had six or seven at least. Now I only have one.  I was told I could access those others from a LifeWay.com site and I checked and I can. But why can I not get to them in Logos?  That is where I want to do my Bible study and sermon prep.  Can you help?

    From "9 Reasons You Might Not See Your Books Yet—and What to Do About It"

    8. You purchased licenses from the LifeWay ebook store

    Books purchased directly from the LifeWay store will not show up in your Logos library. They were not part of the set of licenses we acquired with the Wordsearch business. 

    Action: You’ll continue to access those licenses in the LifeWay web app or mobile apps.

    HCSB Reverse Interlinear Bible

    both are in Logos for a long time. 

    EDIT: and https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/catalog gives the link for "That's easy". The HCSB Reverse Interlinear is not a resource, but a dataset that allows owners of the HCSB to use the RI functionality and should work for you (look in the HCSB panel for a button with Hebrew aleph and Greek omega character on it to see it)

    Barne's Notes on the New Testament.  Need one volume as in Wordsearch; in Logos 8 there are 26 individual volumes.

    This resource will stay as multiple volumes in Logos; we won't be building a single-volume version.

    They won't show a unified Table of Contents (as WS did), but you can navigate between the multiple resources by entering a reference from another NT book in the reference box at the top of the resource panel.

    I hand picked all my Wordsearch content. I started using Wordsearch before they offered packaged levels. So almost everything is important to me.

    My priorities are reference works. Interlinears (I have three or four in WS), Dictionaries, Encyclopedias, original language lexicons and so on. 

    One of the most important of the Interlinears that was a part of my WS is a complete library which has exceptional information offered but is not coded to Strong's numbers. It is called "The Complete Biblical Library" It has no equal. Dictionaries are also very important, for example "Webster's 1913 Unabridged English Dictionary. This dictionary is especially valuable to those of us who use the ASV 1901 translation.

    I would like to see commentaries represented by a single icon. Logos does do this with some commentaries but not all. That is why the logos library is so cluttered and time consuming to use. A different icon for every single book, wow. Same with any dictionaries or publications that have a series of books. One representative icon should suffice. IMHO

    Some of the books that you have already brought over are rather functionless. I have a book, "Great American Documents," as a part of my Wordsearch Library. It has already been turned into an E-Book. Guess what? There is no table of contents. So unless you remember every document in this book, you cannot access them. Every E-Book should have a functional table of contents. That is just basics.

    Our approach to Wordsearch resource conversion is discussed here: https://community.logos.com/forums/p/193938/1117970.aspx#1117970 

    We wanted to get you the books ASAP, then work on bringing the quality up to our regular standards. So I expect that the Tables of Contents for the EPUBs we automatically converted will be improved in resource updates over the next few months. Thanks for your patience!

    The titles which I use regularly in Wordsearch and am awaiting Logos versions are:

    my Interlinear Bible (New Testament),

    The Strong's Dictionary (KJV, HCSB, and NASB95 can display Strong's numbers)

    The Reformation Study Bible (I own this in Wordsearch, but it is not in my Logos library and I know it is for sale in Logos)

    Vine's Expository Dictionary

    Thank you,

    Dan Richardson

  • The Reformation Study Bible (I own this in Wordsearch, but it is not in my Logos library and I know it is for sale in Logos)

    Welcome [:D]

    Curious about Wordsearch ID ? Found two Reformation Study Bibles in Catalog listing => https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/catalog

    Logos.com has the 2015 edition => Reformation Study Bible Notes (2015) (seem to remember Reformation Study Bible having three editions)

    The Strong's Dictionary (KJV, HCSB, and NASB95 can display Strong's numbers)

    Searching Logos.com for Strong's Dictionary finds many resources => https://www.logos.com/search?query=strongs%20dictionary&sortBy=Relevance&limit=60&page=1&ownership=all&geographicAvailability=all 

    Logos (& Verbum) Bible Software uses Original Language lemma for linking resources: e.g. Right Click, click Lemma (ring) has Factbook & Bible Word Study (does not appear for Strong's). A number of explanatory lexicons do not have Strong's numbers (useful for lemma's in other literature, especially lemma's that do not have Strong's number).

    Most Reverse Interlinear Bibles have Strong's numbers. Logos Wiki => Reverse-Interlinear/Interlinear Bibles has a list near the bottom.

    Vine's Expository Dictionary

    Already available in Logos => Vine’s Complete Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words (is one lexicon that has Strong's numbering indexing & Original Language headword indexing).

    I made entries for the following in the feedback forums. Please vote for your favorites. It is not an exhaustive list. I got tired before I got done going through the thread and if there was a post with more than three, I only wrote down three. Also, I did not include interlinears or reverse interlinears or Xrefs. If you would like to see other books, please make an entry there. That way you can see when it is Planned and implemented, etc. The more votes, I bet the faster it gets done.

    The KJV 1900 does have more advanced RI functionality, as you suggested, but LLS:1.0.3 is a closer match to the text and formatting of the WS resource so we decided it was the better one to unlock.
