Ancient Inscriptions Interactive - What resource am I missing?

Most of the Inscriptions have a link on the bottom to "Text of ___" but when you click on that, it seems that the resource doesn't actually exist.

The "Visit Logos.com" simply takes you to "https://www.logos.com/product/unavailable"

The Resource ID is "cos2" (for all of them, except the Amarna Letters) which doesn't seem like a valid name. A search on Logos.com for some of the resources doesn't bring up anything.

The only link that did work was the one for the Amarna Letters, and that opens directly to that resource.

    Adding to Ben, 'COS 2' is the abbreviation FL assigned to Context of Scripture vol 2, many moons back. Neither the desktop library nor the Logos.com respond to the abbreviations, and so frequent mysteries (for me).

    Since I have the volume (a popup correctly appears), if unowned, the connect to Logos.com seems the problem.

    I suspect the problem is that COS is a collection. The error should then be resolved by breaking up that collection.

    My library responds to COS 2 since this is the official short title of Vol 2 of "Context of Scripture". The command prompt will also respond to it. Regarding the Logos store, I assume Jan is correct.

    I stand corrected! Though 'official short title' vs 'alternate title' (judging from library headings/usage)? But the library does (now) respond to user abbreviations, but not the popup on-the-fly abbreviations used by the app.
