- Use mytags e.g. Reading#001, Reading#002...You would have to maintain position by updating the layout for the current book.
- Use Favorites e.g. drag titles from your layout into a suitable folder. This has the advantage of maintaining position in each book if you drag it back after each reading (and delete the previous entry).

That would mean you'd have to update all the numbers in your list when you finished reading book #001.
Logos should implement a Reading List feature like the Watchlist feature on many movie websites.

Didn't they implement a special tag for a reading list? Not prioritized but functional.

I vaguely recall that, but the fact that I can't find it by searching "reading list" or "to read" on the wiki or in Help means it's not very useful or well documented. I searched for both of those phrases in the forums and found dozens of threads where people were discussing their own methods of using user tags to mark books they wanted to read (not prioritized). Can anyone help me find any mention of that special tag they created?
[EDIT: I found it; it's called #ReadLater. Very well hidden. It's only mentioned a few times in the forums, not documented on the wiki at all or in Help, nor on the main Logos website. It's basically an "undocumented feature" and there's a UI to access it only on mobile, though you can see the tags show up on the desktop side to filter your library on them. This is a start, but as I point out in my feature request on Feedback, it doesn't quite cut it.]
There is of course the old Reading Lists feature which you used to champion. I'm not sure that's still getting much attention from anyone. It took a lot of work to curate a reading list, and it was not meant for the same thing. It was a list of articles and sections of books (or entire books) on a particular topic rather than a simple list of books you wanted to read.
There's also the Reading Plan feature, but that's a schedule for reading a particular book, not a list of books you want to read.

I remember something about this too but think it was mobile platform specific? I may be wrong.Didn't they implement a special tag for a reading list? Not prioritized but functional.

Actually, the Reading List feature gets consistent use - from several users. How to Add a Resource to the Mobile App Read Later List (logos.com) has the label approach for mobile. L9 Reading Plans Discussion - Faithlife Forums (logos.com) is more general.

Ah, that's where it is. I was searching (using Google) on site:wiki.logos.com and site:www.logos.com. I didn't think to search site:blog.logos.com.
