What Adventist products do you want? (Tell me ASAP.)
Logos, you may know, has developed a unique system of indexing books that allows thousands of them to be searched at one time for highly nuanced results in relation to any scriptural reference or topic. It’s amazing, as many of you know. Now the door is wide open for us Adventists to get whatever resources we want into the stable of Logos products. My first priority is to arrange for Logos to connect with Adventist publishers to co-publish existing Adventist books (including out-of-print books) so you can have them in Logos’ searchable format.
On Monday morning (tomorrow) I’m supposed to turn in a wish list of your favorite books published by the Review & Herald. So help me out by telling me what you want. List the full title of the book and also the author’s name, if you have that. And if you can include a link to any website where that book is sold, it will ensure that I'l know the exact book you want. I’ll then take your most requested Adventist books and prioritize the list accordingly.
Please post your book/author/link as a reply to this message.
(If you are reading this past Monday morning June 17, still give me your list—for a book by any Adventist publisher—and I’ll see what I can do.)

This is my #1 priority, Mike, and I had numerous conversations about this last week. It would be wonderful to get Ellen White's writings fully indexed in the unique Logos format. Right now they are tagged only to the EGW Index and the Supplementary Index.

Affordability is important. One way to facilitate that is to bundle these resources into various thematic collections that will be available at great discounts.

Martin, as soon as the rest of them are released in 2015, get them into Logos, probably as an upgrade. James Nix will be here next weekend, will discuss with him the options.

Lot's of Liberty issues are archived on their website, I tried to make a personal book version for my own use, but found it unwieldy. I'm considering trying again. Its got some great content.

It's great with all the Andrews U Press books coming to Logos. What I really want the most are the Andrews University Seminary Studies (AUSS) and Journal of the Adventist Theological Society (JATS) journals. I have most volumes in print, but they take up a LOT of shelf space, and searching for a topic or a passage treated in an article takes a lot of manual time. Bring the Logos power to these Adventist academic journals!

A second source of materials might be some of the various Dissertations from Andrews University. I remember Richard M. Davidson wrote and excellent one on typology. I've even seen it cited in recent works (I'm thinking of Jesus: a Theography by Frank Viola and Leonard Sweet its available in Vyrso). It would be great to have some of these books in Logos.

Made this request of the Seminary before, but nothing came out of it. Hopefully they will think differently this time.

The Conditionalist Faith of Our Fathers by LeRoy Edwin Froom - seems to be out of print. There is a DjVu copy on the SDA Archives. http://docs.adventistarchives.org//documents.asp?q=documents.asp&CatID=17
Whether R & H would release it royalty free to reduce price would be nice but doubtful. I would anticipate possibly wider interest in this than just SDAs.

Other publishers
(WHO'S AFRAID OF THE OLD TESTAMENT GOD also by Alden Thompson was published orig by a non-SDA publisher so looks like not part of your remit unless Alden now has the rights.)
Recovering an Adventist Approach to The Life & Mission of The Local Church by Russell C. Burrill pub Hart Books, Fallbrook, California
From Sabbath to Sunday by Samuele Bacchiocchi. I think his estate will hold the rights to it. My copy has c1977 Samuele Bacchiocchi.

The Sabbath in Scripture and History - editor Kenneth Strand R&H pub 1982
Any thoughts against this Lyndon?
I see it as important that we have a selection of well written books covering out distinctive beliefs not only for SDAs but so that non-SDAs can have access to well written source information they can make informed decisions.
If there are differences of opinion within them so much the better - every healthy denomination has that! Even dirty washing does not improve by being locked up in the hope that no one will notice!

I think I suggested this one. If not it was an oversight. have it on my desk in front of me.

Made me smile this morning when I read it. [:)] We will have to wait and see what books R & H decides to licence.

I know that it won't be out in print until GC Session 2015... but it would be nice to be available on Logos at same time or soon after...
