View Logos Collection in Library

Is it possible to include displaying resources included in collections in the library? So if I typed "Theology" in the library search box it would display the resources included in that collection. I know I could do it with tags, but if I have already put the effort to put them into collections, I don't want to go through my collections and tag them.

Thanks Logos for listening!

Roger,

I've asked for this because with over 1,500 resources, how can I tell if I have each in a collection without a master list? L3 had this and it worked great. Now, I can go to Collections and see which resources are in what collections if I want to scroll down the list but it is cumbersome to try to find any that arent'...

I'm 100% behind this. Being able to put something like collection:theology into the Library box would be advantageous.

I'm adding my "me too" to this. I asked for it back in the day. The beta days. (Those were halcyon days. Salad days.)

I would benefit from this as well. I am liking L4 more and more but I still keep L3 up and running,

As I am starting to build Collections, I can see that this would be helpful. I hope it happens.

I also think that would be helpful.

If the LOC and Dewy Decmial system subjects could be collected together to get them out of the way in browsing by subject

Me too...this sounds like a good idea...

Count me as +1 on this.... This is a must have and probably a pretty easy adjust in the code as far as feature adds go...

Agreed!

I do miss the pulldown from the v3 library. I don't always remember what all my collections are called. I don't like using the Collection pane because it is always in an active editing state -- ham-fisted typer that I am.

Just upgraded to v. 4 and am realizing this is missing. Collections are significantly less useful without this! "View" seems like a basic functionality for something like a collection, and I can't see a reason why it was not carried over from v. 3...

Any word from Logos on this?

This suggestion is already up over at uservoice. Please also vote for it there!!

This is far from an ideal solution (especially if you have a large number of collections), but a possible workaround would be to create a collection called "Not in Collections" (or whatever), have it include all resources with rating:>=0 and then add all other collections to "minus these resources".

Justed voted as this would be a very nice resource.

That is how I did it, and I have a LOT of collections

Is this ability in Logos 5?

Yes, you can now filter your library by collection
