Fringe Benefit of a "Bibliography Collection"

I am working on a project for which I will need a bibliography the end. So ... I created a Project Collection in Logos and dragged resources from Library into the Collection as I go. I am leaving Library and this Collection open while I work [underneath other tabs.] Because I had Cited By running I noticed something I hadn't expected. Logos automatically added this Collection to Cited By. And Cited By began showing me other citations from these books I was already using - sometimes in places where I wasn't looking. I am already interested in these resources and now I am getting more out of them under the Cited by tool. Amazing.

Ron, could you post some screen captures...I think I can visualize what you're saying, but a picture would definitely help. Thanks!

Here is a screen shot. I hope it helps you. this shot shows the Library and the Collections Tab. When I use a book in the Project I find it in the Library and drag it into the "+ these resources" box in Collections. If you have "Cited By" open on the right side, you will see results there that reflect whatever you are studying. The results are from the books in the Bibliography Collection. Very intuitive of Logos and very helpful.
