No access to Atlas via Tools

I have Atlases installed (eg. Holman Bible Atlas) but when I use the Tools option, no Atlases are found. I tried adding 'Atlas' as a tag but that didn't help. Does the Tools/Atlas option only work for newer atlases?

Version 6.8.0.0059 on Mac

Thanks for any suggestions or help.

    The Atlas on the tools menu doesn't search the Atlases in your library, but displays a specific Atlas that comes with Logos 6 base packages and requires an internet connection. There's more information on the Atlas tool here: https://community.logos.com/forums/t/92637.aspx

    If you don't have Logos 6 (or are offline) there are a few different options, depending on whether you're looking for a specific place, or whether you just want to browse around an Atlas. For the former, use the Factbook (which should then give you links to other Atlases you own), or use Search Everywhere. For the latter use the The Biblical World map in the Biblical Places Maps Resource.

    I upgraded to the Logos 6 Starter package. I get the impression this package does not include access to the atlas. Is this the case?

    That is correct

    Atlas Maps are available (in different sets) in Bronze, Silver and Gold
