I have seen "our press" referenced by you and others on several occasions but I'm aware I don't know what this actually is.
The Adventist Church is divided into 13 divisions. Each one has one or more printing presses.
Thanks Lynden
Really appreciated, Graham

By the way Graham, I think you are in the Trans-European Division.

Just saw this
In early July Oxford University Press announced that it would publish a new biography of Ellen Gould Harmon White. In 18 chapters prepared by 20 authors Ellen Harmon White: American Prophet examines her ideas and the impact she has made on the Seventh-day Adventist church and American religion generally....
is it already published? or on the point to be published?
who wrote the book? how many articles will be in the book?
Somebody knows more about it?

Edwin I am not getting any hits on the Oxford University Press website. From the WWU website, it seems as if it was just announced that they would publish, with no date as yet.
I am writing the OUP and asking them to make it available in Logos. The more people that do this, the greater the chance that we will get it.

I would like to see all the Books in the Words of the Pioneers collection (APL) in Logos. That would be #1 for me. There is a lot of material and it is on the EG White Estate CD DVD now. I am sure the organizer of that material would want to get it into Logos. Fred Bischoff I think.
Others are:
Bible Hand Book, SN Haskel
Studying Together, Mark Finley
The Cross and its Shadow, SN Haskel
And one that I saw listed earlier, The Sanctuary Service, and The Book of Hebrews, ML Andreason
The Seventh-day Adventist Church Manual, Revised and updated as needed.
Seventh-day Adventists Believe.... (AKA 28 Fundamental Beliefs)
Exodus and Advent Movement in Type and in Antitype, Taylor G. Bunch
And a long shot: Seven Mysteries Solved, Howard Peth (two Volumes) (ISBN 0-9618580-0-1 and 0-9618580-0-X
There are many more that could be found in an Adventists library of this nature.
What about the Sabbath School Quraterly? Subscription?

Good suggestions Fred. As it relates to the Sabbath School Quarterly, the best we have right now is we put it in word and compile it as a personal book. You can type your notes in it. If you are not familiar with creating Personal Books in Logos, then see the wiki article for instructions. http://wiki.logos.com/Personal_Books

I do not remember if it was suggested before, but what about the Andrews University Seminary Dissertation Series. Here is the pdf file listing all of the books coming from the University Press.

Edwin and Lynden, Logos does have a relationship with Oxford University Press that applies to some of their publications. I asked our publisher relations department to try to get this for us. We will see if they are successful..

Fred, I've been trying unsuccessfully to contact Words of the Pioneers. I will keep at it because everything they have would be of interest to Logos. Although most of their content is in the public domain, they could perhaps make it quicker and easier for me to get into the Logos system.

Thanks Martin.

Today is Aug 3. Started on one on the Words of the Pioneers' works on July 22 [12 day's work and am only one quarter done] and 4500 minutes of editing. Yes, please get the Words of the Pioneers into Logos. [Other threads speak of the expense of Logos resources - take a 300 page file and prepare it as a tagged PBB with 1000 footnotes. - How much would you be willing to pay someone to do that for you? At minimum wage I have put $600 into this edit and have 75% more to do]

Good idea, David. We are discussing with the White Estate getting their entire galaxy of writings into the Logos system, obviously beginning with the re-tagged writings of EGW.

David your point is very well made. I have tagged works for my own personal use and know how long it takes me. If only the grumblers would try tagging something themselves they might not winge quite so much. After all, no one forces us to patronize Logos!
0 -
Your dedication is amazing, David. Actually, Logos has its own system of preparing books for digitizing and tagging, under a contract in an amazingly efficient and productive arrangement. I'm not directly involved in that process. My role is to bring in new resources and then help facilitate their marketing.

Has anyone mentioned the late Dr Edward Heppinstall's 3 books Our High Priest, Salvation Unlimited and The Man Who Is God? All pub by R & H but out of print.
Written on a relatively popular level I am not sure how they are regarded now. Any one any thoughts on these?

Not familiar with the other two, but i definitely remember interacting with "Our High Pries" would be interested in getting that one.

Lynden yesterday I just I downloaded the SDA Sabbath School Quarterly and converted it to MS Word and imported it into a Personal Book. It works great for looking up the texts and reading the Quarterly. I'll try it this week and see how I like it. So far so good. What do you use for an abbreviation for the SSQ? Something Like SSQ1306?
What about a Bible Studies Set like Seminars Unlimited, Storicles of Prophecy, or the Discovery Bible Studies set. We could then print them and share them instead of having to buy a whole set each time. Many people don't follow through to the end with a study series.

I usually name the lesson the theme for that week or quarter. Someone has already converted it, you may want to check out this faithlife group. https://faithlife.com/adult-bible-study-guide/activity

Felipe and John, thanks so much. This book was off my radar screen. But anything published by SBL from an Adventist deserves prime attention. I'll add it to my list.
Licensing is always a potential issue. I can't be specific because of delicate negotiations, but please pray with me that all the wonderful resources suggested in this forum and elsewhere can be co-licensed with the publisher for inclusion either in a base package or an add-on library bundle (for the sake of discounted resources for pastors as well as sales volume for publishers--win-win!). Logos does have excellent working relationships with publishers, and we need to see that expanded to completely cover our SDA market.
I'm working hard to be "worthy" of representing you all here at Logos. I feel the responsibility very deeply and appreciate your prayer support.

I have this book on my list of desired acquisitions. I hope we can get it from Oxford--thanks for the recommendation.
BTW, yesterday we prepared the product page posting for the new EGW Encyclopedia from the R&H. It will soon go up on pre-pub.

Dr. Weber, I would like to add another one. I have not gone through this entire thread so I don't know if this book has already been suggested. Anyhow, the book:
Altar Call By Dr. Roy Gane. I think Diadem is the publisher in Berrien Springs MI. Anyhow, great book and it needs to be on Logos. This book is tremendous in Sanctuary truth and for exegetical purposes, this man knows this subject very well and would great to have this work.
Shalom...

Thanks! I've added this to my list of desired acquisitions.

I was looking for one of Dr Gane's book
And I found this
Zondervan Illustrated Bible Backgrounds Commentary: Old Testament
Roy E. Gane (Ph.D., University of California, Berkeley), Leviticus
I knew he did wrote the NIV Application Commentary: Leviticus, Numbers. But I did not know that he wrote also for another commentary set
0 -
Yes he did write for that set as well. I asked him about it and he said it is a wonderful commentary set to have. I looked to see if you could purchase separately his portion but that is not an available option like the NIV set. I have it on my wish list just because of what he told me about it. Well the OT portion anyway, not sure I can afford the NT one.

Great Martin, as far as I know, I think Dr. Gane owns the rights to this book there so I think you'll be calling him I'm sure.
Thanks again for all you doing to make Logos even better.Shalom

- I also recall at one point somebody telling me about this one book, or perhaps a series of books, which is now out of print. It dealt with giving the contexts and backstories behind each of Sister White's letters/Testimonies to the Church. Does anybody recall anything of this sort?
Lastly, a lot of these suggestions, as well as a number of the ones which the brothers posted earlier have an official corresponding Spanish translation in print. Would it be possible to also somehow get our hands on those?

Welcome to the forums Christopher. If you are not familiar with this page, please see a list of works already completed or planned. Others will be posted later. https://www.logos.com/sda
Mission: To serve God as He desires.

That's quite a good list, Christopher. I'm in fact working on a number of them already. It's a lengthy process of gaining licensing approvals, digitizing, tagging in the unique Logos ecosystem, product promotion preparation, etc. And it all starts with a list of suggestions, such as you have shared. Thank you! And may God bless your witness for Him.
