Is there a way for Logos Pro to list out all the books owned on a particular subject? For example, Biblical Criticisms.
You can sort your library if in details view by Type. However it is the Type as set up by Logos. Many books are not categorized, but simply tagged Monograph.
Now if you know the subject, then open library in detail view and on the left under Filter open the Subject drop down and scroll or do a filter search. You should get a good idea of Subjects from the scroll down menu.
Hope this helps
Thank you John, thst helped. Do you know the Subject material is organized? The first group was not alphabetical but when continuing on down to the second grouping they do appear alphabetical. However, I had several groups of alphabetical listings rather than one large group that alphabetically arranged. I have about 2 dozen dictionaries and enclclopedias in my library. When I wanted to do some research on Biblical Criticism (I didn't see that in the pull down Subject Matter) I had to open each volumn separately and search the table of contents. Is there any way for Logos to search all the books in my library for a subject that does not appear in the pull down subject Matter?
I would suggest you create a collection of your dictionaries and then run a book search selecting the collection, then from the "all text" drop down select search field and then select "heading text" and "large text". In the search box type "Biblical Criticism" with quotes. See below:
Hope this helps.
Thank you, John, I
Perhaps an easier way to find library resources on a specific topic is FactBook. Open FactBook and type Biblical Criticism and select from dropdown.
John,
These are all excellent helps! I’ve been using/learning Logos for a couple of years now but never got around to understanding the search techniques. And then when “Pro” was introduced I relied on the Smart search. Again, thank you so much for these tips.

I needed to restart Logos, and now when I tried to do an "All" search, that AI thing is there. How do I get rid of it?
Greetings, I just noticed the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia (Amstelodamensis) in my library. I have a temporary license. I don't remember seeing this before (its copyright date is 2025) and any search on Logos.com returns no results. It looks like a new morph tagged toy to play with. I'll do a little digging on the…
I have a brand new Microsoft Surface Pro with Snapdragon X 10-core processor running Windows 11 Education system and cannot get the Logos keyboards to work. The generic Greek and Hebrew keyboards work, but their font maps are unfathomable. If I delete those generic keyboards and leave the Logos keyboards installed, the…
Dear Folk, I asked this some several weeks ago in a couple of posts, but fear it got buried in the suggestion/discussion. What should I expect in response and time to respond when I make a suggestion? If I suggest a resource I'd like to see in Logos, when/how will I know if the staff approves/ nixes, and when and where…
Quick question: where does the Lexham English Bible actually place Romans 16:25–27? I don’t see it in the main text (not at the end of ch. 14 or 16, and not even in brackets). Is it only in the textual notes/apparatus, or am I missing it somewhere in Logos?
