Reading assignments for Courses in books that are not part of my Logos Library

I am going through a course right now and I already own some of the books in other formats (kindle, physical). Is there a way to find out what the specific readings are? Stuff like page numbers and chapters.  That way I can follow along with the course.

    Matthew,

    I would say it depends on the course.  

    Can you tell us what course it is?  Then more targeted help could be given if you tell us what book or resource you are missing, someone could look it up if they have the course and that book or resource and provide you with a path to follow throughout the remainder of the course.

    If Logos carries the book, you can add the ISBN to your Library (I’ve done this with Kindle, PDF & paper books). This may provide the search abilities you are looking for. I believe the “add print book” is only available at certain feature levels

    The course I am dealing with right now is MI201 Church Planting.

    The book is "The Shaping of Things to Come"

    From what I can tell, there is no easy way to tell where in the book the readings come from.  I don't think a search will help.  For example, in segment 1, the reading is found on page 189 and goes for about 5 paragraphs.   In segment 4, the reading refers to a chart on page 218-220.

    If the was one on a book of the Bible, that would be easier to find.

    That was a good suggestion and I added it to my print library but unfortunately, it did not change anything.

    In the Faithlife Group for the course there is a notes document you can connect to for the course. I believe there's also a file for all the resources that the course uses. I always connect to the Note file when I do a course because that highlights the pages in the book and I just need to open the book and read what is highlighted. If you don't own the book in the software don't get hang up on what you don't own.

    That is a good suggestion.  I have connected to that Faithlife group but I haven't been able to find such a doc. The closest I have gotten is  under the "Bible Study" section and the Logos Documents subsection there was a file labeled "MI201—Readings" file. I click on the link but all it says is, "You do not have a copy of this document."
