How to utilize the "Reading Folder" feature

There was an error rendering this rich post.

In Logos on my desktop Windows machine, I have a small 'R" icon in the sidebar that shows a list of books when I click on it. Right clicking on items says they are in a folder called 'reading'. I can remove items from the list by right-clicking on them, but I have not figured out how to add items to this list. It contains a different list of books from the "read later" list on my iPhone. I like the simplicity of this list over reading plans, but only if I can figure out how to manage this list.

You have me puzzled as I don't see anything similar. By sidebar, do you mean toolbar or the sidebar of a particular panel/resource? and where in the sidebar does the r appear?

This sounds like the folder system Logos implemented for the toolbar a while back.

I have a couple folders for my toolbar that I created: R and M.

Right click a resource that is already on the toolbar and you'll see a spot for "folder name"

Type "reading" into it and it should add it to your "R" folder (which is the shortened version of "reading")

I think you are right, Levi. It must have been something I was experimenting with sometime in the past and forgot about. I had thought this might have had something to do with the Mobile app's 'read later', which I wish it did! Thanks for the reminder about these folders.

Good Morning, Eph 1:7, which reads, “I have redemption,” encouraged me. I became curious, what other things does the New Testament tell me that I have/possess?
