I am trying to find the Apostles' Creed in my library (Platinum) and I cannot seem to find it anywhere. I must be missing it.
Off-hand I'm not if these are in Platinum but expect the first one at least would

Apostle's Creed. Its relation to Primitive Christianity H.B.Sweete
Edit Note: Ok checked and I was wrong, Rick's title is not in Platinum. http://www.logos.com/ebooks/details/HSTCRCON
However Swete's title is in platinum: http://www.logos.com/ebooks/details/APSTCRDHBS
You're not missing it. Although there is a book on the Apostle's Creed in Platinum (The Apostles' Creed: Its Relation to Primitive Christianity), it doesn't contain the Creed in modern English. It does however contain several versions of it in Latin, Greek and Middle English.
You should buy this resource: Historic Creeds and Confessions. (which is not in Platinum)
I thought I was losing my mind, I was sure I had it somewhere in my library. I will get Brannan's book tomorrow.
Thanks for the help.

Not sure why you need it; but if urgent, you can find it on-line.
It's not urgent, so I can wait until tomorrow. I always call Jim-Ray with customer service. He has been more than helpful in the past so I purchase my resources through him.
You can find several different English translations of the Apostle's Creed, showing different variations for different church traditions, and some history about the origin of this creed here on the Wikipedia article about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apostles'_Creed
The version in Rick Brannan's book is different still from all the ones on Wikipedia. It is nearly the same as the one on http://www.ccel.org/creeds/apostles.creed.html, (with one variation in wording: "I believe a holy catholic church" instead of "I believe in the holy catholic church"), which in turn is a slightly modernized version of the Book of Common Prayer version ("sits at" instead of "sitteth on" and "catholic" instead of "Catholick").
As you can see there is no definitive version of it. But they're all pretty similar.

You can also find it in Grudem's "Systematic Theology", plus all the other creeds and I think the Chicago statement on Biblical Inearrancy. I don't have the logos version, and will have to get it just for quick references like this.

Good call Ralph, I'd forgotten these were there.

Thanks again for all the help.
