Just got to remember not to do the "right clicking" on a work in the bible and choose Factbook. lol
No, you need to select lemma or person on the left side before clicking for Factbook. You ALWAYS have to check the left side tab before choosing the right side action.

It does have to do with factbook tags and whether a resource has had factbook tagging added to it or not.

I have found (or not found) items that I expect to be present in Factbook are not present. For example, I entered "Recollection" into Factbook and I received a good entry/definition from
The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church.I was content and then I went down to the 'Books from Your Library' section and get no results.
This is a misunderstanding of the purpose of the "From Your Library" section.
Rather than showing a list of books that mention the subject on the page, this is showing a list of books that are predominantly about that subject. The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church definitely would not qualify as such for the subject of "Recollection".

I used it a little at first, but now that I see they are actively putting information and functionality into it, it makes sense to use it whenever you are beginning to trace names, places, and other background info. It's really like a relay switch to deep dive into your library.

Thanks, good to know! I did find the search for topic at bottom of the factbook to be real helpful and it seems to do a much greater search string than my normal searches. It pulled 100's of article's etc fom a ton of my books even the Life and Times of the Messiah.
So, I will be using the Factbook more often and using the search at the bottom of the Factbook.
Thanks again!

Yeah using the expanded search at the bottom of each entry can be extremely useful. Glad that helped.
