Any of the collections worth getting?
My basic recommendations:
Everyone should have
New to the Church fathers
Getting serious:
At this point is it mainly adding individual authors/volumes based on your interests - Chrysostom and Augustine are very common large blocks added. I tend to push Book of the Bee, Ephrem the Syrian, E. A. Wallis Budge …
I would recommend Church Fathers Definitive Collection (626 Resources) | Logos Bible Software but I suspect you are asking regarding smaller collections. Which are you looking at?
I was looking at the definitive collection, too. I just wanted to see if people had any good recommendations. I had the Church Fathers collection from an older base package. I think back then it was under 120 volumes.
thank you for the detailed response! I will have to mull it over.
It's funny, but I read @MJ. Smith's statement that "At this point is it mainly adding..." and read, "At this point is it mainly addicting…" which is also true. 😉
do you have any recommendations? Edit: i seen your newest post now.
On a more serious note than my last one, it may also be worth checking some of the legacy libraries. Some of MJ's recommendations I can get much cheaper as part of a legacy library than by themselves. Naturally, with dynamic pricing, YMMV.
thanks! I have a good portion of the church fathers from an earlier package.
Unfortunately, there are a number of publishers not available in Logos, often because the presses are so small they use lulu. For a hint of what I actually recommend, see Amazon Book Clubs. These are the books I recommend be added to Logos. Note Amazon is here being used as the source of a reading list not as a book seller.
Hard to believe that the Dictionary of Early Christian Beliefs is not included with any existing library or legacy library - not even in verbum. Therefore it’s an easy one to miss.
Such a helpful list!

Ok don't laugh… This may be a dumb question. I am no biblical scholar, I am a 30 yr college student who just wants to understand how to read and study her Bible better. So my question is in BDAG it states "extended Definitions are in bold roman" and "English formal equivalents are in bold italic/normal italic." Then goes…
I accidently did something that caused the Bible book titles to disappear from Scripture on my iPad. Does anyone know how to help me get them back? Chapter titles and verse numbers are still there. Titles are still there in my desktop version, but not in my iPad. Thanks!
Is there a reason why the Hebrew keyboard maps used by the keyboard picker are not aligned with the old Logos Biblical Hebrew Keyboard? This morning I tried it out for the first time (I'm used to using the Windows Language Bar), and couldn't figure out why aleph wasn't showing up where it was "supposed" to be. It also…
Here is the library view for the two series "Scripture Connections" and "Reading Christian Scripture". Why are the resource types for the books in these 2 series all over the place? I get it if some of these books have had full Bible Commentary tagging completed and some have not, but why Monograph, New Testament Survey,…
I just had a super weird experience, where I appear to have bought a resource, and received a different resource. As a preface, I have several monographs of the Qur'an, which are pretty useless to me. So I went looking and saw that Logos in fact did have a copy as a "Research Edition". So I bought it. However, when I went…
