Is there a way to upload pdf files to the My Library or any other location in Logos?
Nope.
Only major workaround is PDF > Microsoft Word > Personal Book (desktop only)
@DMB I don't understand the workaround!
Yes you do. Word imports pdf's. Thense PBs.
That I do know, but not something starting with PDF!
I'm confused.
Convert PDF files in MS Word and use Word format as the basis for a Personal Book.
@Willie Pankey I've linked the below YouTube video that explains the process. It helped me when I had this question, hope it helps you too:

I don't understand it either. But then again, I think you may have intended to @ a different DMB. Here's hoping Logos gets this tagging system figured out, so as to avoid continued errant tags! -DMB (a different one)
Thanks, SBG. I'll have to check it out.
Aside from intention, he did tag the right DMB, as you will see if you hover your cursor over the DMB in the quoted portion of his reply—the ID of this DMB (118382) is different from your ID (326339). The forum software is the problem, and Logos's plan for dealing with it is for one of you to change your profile name. Barring that, you'll keep getting tagged and …
(Now that I've tagged you, I wonder if the other DMB will be tagged as well 🤔)
I never see tags beyond the little blue ones reading a post. Blissfully unaware I guess.
You may get better mileage converting PDF to Word using Calibre.
Calibre? Interesting. I've never heard of it. I'll check it out.
I don't think that this is what you're looking for, but instead of converting a pdf document to personal books, I have a pdf folder in Favorites with links to my pdf documents. They open up outside of Logos, but it's quicker than converting them to personal books and I don't have to worry about errors.
Ronald, is this what you mean? I realized that you can simply drag and drop a PDF from my iCloud folder into a folder I created in "Favorites." And I was able to open them from there. I still need to organize them, but at least they're closer to Logos than they were. It would be great if you could tag or search them. Someday . . . Thanks to all for your suggestions!
Yes, that's exactly what I have done with my pdf documents.
The forum software is the problem, and Logos's plan for dealing with it is for one of you to change your profile name.
FYI, the forum software is produced and operated by a different company. We have reported this bug to them.
That's good. All I remember seeing before is the suggestion for one of them to change their profile name.
Yes, that would be a workaround in the meantime.

I looked at the Lexham Survey of Theology today, and found at its beginning a diagram that looked interesting, but that I found almost impossible to navigate usefully. It popped up in the Media Tool, which I almost never use, so I'm hoping there's a way to zoom in and out in such a diagram that would make it intelligible.…
I remember back in the day there was a Verbum Product Manager, but that there may not be one now. Who oversees Verbum/Catholic specific books suggestions and activities these days?
Will there be Verbum 2026 Libraries? Will there be German 2026 Libraries?
I didn't care for this method for the 2025 libraries and I don't care for it for the 2026. You have to add it to your cart, then go to your cart, and then you can click on it to view the details. Why can't I just click on it and view the details without the extra steps? This is what I want to see. How do I get to here for…
As far as I see, the Carta Understanding series is no longer available in the shop. Is this related to past issues (see here)?
