Index of Bible Doctrines?
I have seen some very helpful resources put together by people on the forum that help Logos users find resources that Logos doesn't find easily. A couple examples are the index of Bible Studies and the Sermon Index which both provide links to resources on any given Bible passage that Logos can't. They are both extremely helpful for studying a particular text.
I was thinking this would be a great idea for studying systematic theology. It would be great if we could create a file that would provide links to any resource that discussed any particular area of theology. This would need to be a document set out like a normal systematic theology, and then under each subject it would provide links to resources that specifically adressed each doctrine. Forum users could contribute as they found each location in each resource and it could be crowd sourced in a way. This would provide a helpful index of all of our resources that are available when we study any given doctrine (and probably also an idea of which resources we could purchase that would discuss this).
Any takers (willing to contribute, or just interested)?..

I think the reading lists are a great place for this, and they already integrate into Logos, and are relatively easy for people to edit and collaborate on. Unfortunately, the search function in Logos is virtually broken, and you can't create links to individual reading lists. Nonetheless, I think this is the best way to do this.
I created a Reading List on "The Lord's Supper" recently, and I can see that two people have added to it since. If you search your entire library for lord's supper, you'll see a link to it above all the dictionary entries.
Reading Lists are a hidden treasure in Logos. It would be great to see them used more, and perhaps then the programmers would fix the difficulty in finding them.
