You do not need to cancel your preorder, and you will not (ever!) be charged twice for something own.

What really needs to happen is this Item should be like gill and placed in verbum 7 packages so it can be made.
Verbum 7, Verbum 9... whatever. [;)]

What happens to the Community Pricing bids/bidders? Does an arbitrary "strike price" get set on this as a pseudo pre-order, or does the Catholic Encyclopedia just count as something like a failed community pricing attempt?

In the past the price is normally taken as the projected bid price (i.e. $30) and the bids either succeed or fail accordingly.

At least normally there has been at least a few days' notice, so that people who bid under the winning price can adjust it as desired.

Thanks all for the feedback. It may be a little while before I can make the upgrade leap that I'd like to, so being able to add the (long desired) Catholic Encyclopedia would be a terrific addition to tide me over until then.

Just noting that it's not normally more expensive to make a series of little jumps than to make a big one. In fact, it can be cheaper.

Brian, the Catholic Encyclopedia will be available for individual purchase in the coming months.

Hi Donald,
I've had a Community Pricing bid on Catholic Encyclopedia since February of 2013, and I'm extremely happy that I'll be able to participate in the coming preorder. 👍🏽

I saw that The Catholic Encyclopedia is promoted in the Verbum 9 update under the "Magisterially Scriptural" description of Verbum 9 on the Verbum website. I learned though that the Encyclopedia is still in the "Bid" stage until the end of the week. I "chatted" with several Logos product specialists and they said they did not have a completion target yet for this product. I think I read somewhere too that the Catholic Encyclopedia will be integrated with the Factbook. Seems like this could still take quite some time to complete then. Also seems a little unrealistic to promote this product in Verbum 9 when it will likely still be quite some time before this product is released. Can anyone from Faithlife shed some light on this situation? Thanks.

Faithlife said it would ship shortly after Logos 9 release, and that it was almost done. Logos has done this in the past, where they take languishing prepubs and add them to base packages so that it gets the funding necessary to produce it. When they do this, the people who don't buy a base package but have ordered the perpub end up waiting longer to get there copy.

It's rare for a date to be available to the public that is not shown on the product page.

It is conceivable that it could be released before Factbook integration. But Faithlife is also capable of integrating titles into Factbook rather quickly.

I can't commit to a specific day, but the Catholic Encyclopedia should be available soon. Like Liturgy of the Hours, we are putting the finishing touches on it.

Glad to see this moving forward!
I got an email last week saying that my Pre-Pub bid was successful and that bidding would close on 11/6/2020 at 12:00pm Pacific Time. The item page also gives the same date https://www.logos.com/product/8511/the-catholic-encyclopedia, but bidding still seems to be open. Am I missing something, or should it have been closed by now?

Looks like it fell back below 100%...

Looks like everyone who bought a set that includes this will see the pre-order indicate that they preordered today:
Now I wanna know when we get it [;)]

I wonder why it's showing a dynamic price of $30 if we already own it?

Maybe I should wait until the 22nd actually comes around before asking, but:
While the Catholic Encyclopedia is on my Desktop version (and looks great [Y]), it isn't on the mobile version. Is it coming for that too, or was it never intended for anything other than a desktop resource?

The Catholic Encyclopedia was released to all who purchased it in Verbum 9 packages. Coming for everyone else on the publication date!
Merry Christmas!

all who purchased it in Verbum 9 packages
FWIW - I have not received this, and I've purchased both Verbum 9 Gold and Verbum 9 Academic Professional. This is not a complaint - I've waited about 10 years for this resource, I can wait a few extra days - but if the logic is supposed to be pushing this down to Silver+ packages, it might be a bit buggy.
