Suggestion: Multiple Library Tags
I would rate this request a 5 on a scale of 10. It would be helpful but certainly livable without it. Allow multiple Library tags. I have a dual monitor setup and would like a library tab on my top display to be filtered by English or favorite bibles so i can quickly open a new one. The second tab i would like on my bottom display so i can have it set to commentaries, topicals, etc. Of course I can always use the library button instead on the bottom display.

Philip, would this function the same as if I made a collection of all books in one language and added it to the shortcut menu? How would your suggestion function more effectively?
It wouldn't. That was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks! I forgot that the collection functions the same as a filtered library in the ability to open resources. I would only make two suggestions. Be able to check and uncheck a "locked" checkbox that would lock or unlock the collection for editing and when checked minimize the "Add subtrack" resources sections to display more resources to open.

I would rate it 8 out of 10. I had assumed multiple tags would be allowed - 3 minimum, 5 maximum. I would use them to define collections and minimise the amount of resources to be added or removed.

I just realized that I made a mistake in my initial post. All references to tags should be tabs. I would like multiple library panes open at the same time. However opening up a locked collection window would perform the exact same function as I was looking for. The only think is I wish, and maybe you can, I wish you could name a window and define which resources open up there. For instance one window would be labeled "Bible" and all Bibles would default there. One commentaries, one tools (pericope compares, text compares, etc) Maybe if you could right click between the "+" and the "X" and have a list of the different categories with checkboxes by the ones you want to open in that window by default.

As Philip clarified below, he was asking about tabs. You can have an unlimited* number of tags on an individual resource, but My Library can only be visible in one tab at a time.
(* "Unlimited tags" are limited by available memory and how fast you can type. Some restrictions apply. Not available in all areas.)

Bradley,
I know that you're busy but could you give me a brief mini-lesson on tags?
why do I want them?
What is an example of how they'd be used in the real world?
I just don't get it yet..

While I'm sure the Logos folks have thought through this more thoroughly then I tags give us the ability to circumvent mistakes or differences of opinion with the underlying metadata. For instance, suppose there is a resource I find that deals in length with prayer but is not categorized it as such. I could tag the resource with prayer and, assuming there's a type for prayer which there probably isn't I could query type:prayer or mytag:prayer when filtering out the library or defining a collection.
