NABRE
Just wondering when Logos will update the NAB
Released on March 9, 2011, the New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE) is the culmination of nearly 20 years of work by a group of nearly 100 scholars and theologians, including bishops, revisers and editors. The NABRE includes a newly revised translation of the entire Old Testament (including the Book of Psalms) along with the 1986 edition of the New Testament.

What am I missing here? Why won't the NABRE just be another bible in our base packages (I have Platinum for instance) and updated/included in due course?

Logos includes Bibles in various base packages => http://www.logos.com/comparison and => http://www.logos.com/catholiccomparison
Logos offers many more Bibles than are included in base packages => http://www.logos.com/products/search?Resource+Type=Bibles

That expectation would be more true for a Commentary collection or series. Whilst new volumes are initially sold as a pre-pub they usually get incorporated into the next base package update. New bibles usually replace an older version e.g. NASB95 vs. NASB, NIV2011 vs. NIV84.

The NABRE is included in some base packages and library builders. Since Logos is committed to providing it, I suspect it's time in pre-pub is to offer others the discount rather than to raise the funds to put it in the production stream.
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
The NABRE is included in some base packages and library builders.The NAB is not in the Logos Base Packages (Home, Scholars, Gold, etc) but is in some Catholic Library collections. The latter would likely be updated after a while.
Last November I bought the Catholic Library Builder because the product description said that was the way to go if I already had a "base package" The newly created Catholic Base Package appeared to be the same content as the Catholic Library Builder and the "redundant" content of all the non-Catholic base packages. I am grateful for the huge savings I got on resources I was already committed to buying. But when the Catholic Scholar's base package was added it seems as if there are resources included in it that are not in the two lesser offerings. I wonder if I would have fared better buying the Catholic Scholars package after negotiating a discount for having Portfolio already. Here are the various groupings of resources. Logos does in fact advertise at least one as a base package:
I mention this in relation to the NABRE because I just noticed it is about to ship from Pre-Pub. It is one of those licenses included in the Library Builder and I had to be careful to cancel my Pre-Pub order so I won't pay for twice.

I ran this through the package comparison spreadsheet:
These are the resources (* = resource licences) contained in Catholic Scholar's (CS) but not in Portfolio nor in the the Catholic Library Builder (CLB) - as per the information I used back then to make the sheet. You may have them nevertheless from errors in the description/sheet compilation/other resource purchases. Anyway I don't think that it was wrong to go for CLB instead of CS

Yes, and it also says on the resource page that it's part of Cath. Scholar's.

Have you made this suggestion in the suggestion forums, or written to suggest@logos.com? That would be the best way to get it to their attention. Beyond that, the matter would be between Logos and the publisher. You could also write the publisher and suggest that they approach Logos about such a joint venture.

I don't have a timeline at this point, but we already have plans to produce the NABRE.
THANKS for the info.
