Would love to be able to loan books to individuals for them to read. This is possible in Amazon.
BLUF: Allow owning of multiple copies of the same resource; provide the ability to lend/send the resource to another account. Essentially giving the "lent" user a "trial usage" of the resource for a lender predefined amount of time.
Goal: Enhance Small/Large Group Studies.
Requirements: Allow account to own multiple copies of the same resource and the ability for the "owner" of the resource to lend the resource to another account once, for a specified amount of time like 14 days (preferably also the ability to transfer the ownership to the other account for say gifting to a user), The ability for the lent user to "accept" the resource. Some form of accounting system to prevent abuse, and "indefinite" lending.
During usage of a lent resource logos could alert the user of the temporary resource and time left, with the ability to buy it for themselves(which should return the lent copy back to the owner) To prevent abuse, accounts could be limited to how many active items are being lent to them. As well as how many times a specific resource is allowed to be lent to a particular account..
Example: User 3 lends Resource A to User 4, User 4 accepts lent resource, after Resource A is returned to owner (by User 4 choice or by time elapsed) User 4 can no longer be lent Resource A by any user. But User 3 can still lend User 4 a different Resource( say Resource B)
I know there's probably copyright issues with this, but something I've ran into many times after amassing a good number of books in my library is my desire to share them with others that I'm teaching – in the same way I can loan a print book to a friend to read for a bit before getting it back to then loan to another or read it again myself. I just wish I could bless my friends easier instead of saying "oh yeah I read this really great work on that, you can borrow my computer for a bit to read some of it"

Build your biblical library with a new trusted commentary or resource every month. Yours to keep forever.
I think I suggested this before, but after talking to a fellow Logos user, he thought it was a great idea, so I decided to share this again. While the print library is a great idea in theory, and I would love to use it, I know that most of my ~2,500 physical books are not in Logos. I also know that you add books all the…
“Send hyperlinks here” is very useful, but unfortunately it doesn’t work with books. Even if I open a second copy of a book and set it to “Send hyperlinks here,” the links still open in the current panel. Clicking on entries in the table of contents or index always redirects within the same window, which makes searching…
Add the translation's marginal notes, or footnotes, to the Logos version.
Please add MFA to your site. You have financial data and private user information on user accounts. I have no idea why you are not using basic levels of security to ensure users protection. Please implement immediately.
I would find it helpful to have an option where I can make a note directly from a Smart Search window. That way I can save a step or two in saving and adding anchors to the Smart Search content.
