How to delete a PBB?
I have a PBB that only shows up as a resource in the library (no longer listed on the Personal Book pane). Is there a way to delete this PBB without Logos intervention? I have tried removing the resource file from the resource manager folder, but that only results in "This resource is no longer in your library" (The PBB still shows up in the library).

You could try hiding it as per https://wiki.logos.com/Hiding_Books

Thanks Graham; I was hoping that, since it is a personal book, I would be able to completely remove it.

If you Upload a PB you will have to hide it as Faithlife have not provided the facility to delete PB's from their server. So, no matter how you try to delete it the server will sync it back! If it was not uploaded I can delete a PB by removing it from the Personal Book tool (pane), but this doesn't work for everybody, so hiding it is the only effective way!

Thanks for the clarification, Dave. I initially had 2 duplicate (but separate) files in my library. One shows up in my PBB function, the other not. I was eventually able to delete the one from the PBB, but not the other, and both remained in the library. I searched all over the system to find a way to delete them before I posted. Somehow I thought that you were able to delete the PB from the documents folder on the server, but of course it was not listed.
Now, until the upload function is enhanced to include a delete function, I will be very careful in using this. [:)]
Thanks again

I thank all of you that are doing Beta. I am not.
When I want to get rid of a PBB what I have done is remade it using a DOCX file of dummy.docx. Then renamed it to Dummy00x. The next PBB I built I reused one of the Dummy00x books. The Sync should pick up the now smaller dummy book.
