New Wordsearch books being added to Logos
We are beginning to ship out some of the new books that weren't available in the Logos library. A few notes:
- We wanted to get these books out and available to Wordsearch users as soon as possible. Rather than wait until the book was a complete Logos resource to ship it, we decided to batch create and ship Faithlife ebook versions that we will update to Logos resources. These ebooks will have basic functionality but not all the tagging that comes in a Logos resource (because they are batch produced, they could contain typos or strange formatting). We will begin work immediately to update these resources. We plan to have them all updated by the end of 2020. Edit: See https://community.logos.com/forums/p/193938/1125810.aspx#1125810 for an update on timing.
- This is the first batch of many. If you're waiting for a book and don't see it, it's coming in a future batch.
- If you already own a license in Wordsearch, you'll see them start to populate in your library. If you don't own a Wordsearch license, it's not yet possible to purchase them from Logos.com. We're working to get product pages up for them in the near future.
We're very excited to add these titles to the library and are looking forward to adding many more.

Thank you Ben, and thanks Logos for the nice dynamic list https://www.logos.com/wordsearch-library-migration
Question: When a book flips from ebook to full Logos resource, will the above page be updated?
Thanks FL!

Thank You for moving quickly to get our resources to us in Logos. I have a question. I owned the second edition of Jesus and the Gospels by Craig Blomberg in Wordsearch. Logos carries the same book yet it was bought over as an e-book. May i ask why Logos went that route instead of just giving me the Logos Book?

That page has moved to https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/library-migration and it will be updated automatically as it's driven from our resource database.

This was an error in aligning the Wordsearch and Logos catalogues. It's been fixed now, so the Logos Edition should download to your library. Thanks for reporting it!

Well, it's been an adventure, and I have gone through some ups and downs in the process, but the Logos staff and community have been great and I look forward to a long future together.
As has already been said, Thanks for getting us moved over so quickly and working so hard to get our libraries available0 -
Hi Bradley,
I have another one: The Sermon on the Mount: The Message of the Kingdom came over as an e-book. I owned it as part of the preaching the word commentary in Wordsearch. On Logos.com it shows i need to by it. Can this be fixed or is this a mismatch that must wait? Thanks!

Very few of my Wordsearch books appear. Do I need to do something to start the migration?

Where are they not appearing? Does your library of Wordsearch title appear here - https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/library-migration if you login with the email account associated with your Logos account? Are they appearing on that webpage, but not in the Library tab in your Logos program? These "not appear" situations have very different causes.

Dave, when I click on the link you provided I get this message
Your Wordsearch library isn’t in Logos yet.
Yet if I go to my WordSearch library and click on McGee's Thru the Bible, it takes me to that resource in the Logos catalogue and shows that I do not own it but can purchase it for $333.99. The same is true of other resources that I own in WordSearch.

If I replaced "Yet" with "Consequently" in your post, it would make sense to me. If your Wordsearch library isn't in Logos yet, Logos isn't going to show that you own the books in it.

Considering => ANNOUNCE: Licenses are imported would suggest refreshing link => https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/library-migration
If you're not seeing your licenses, please read https://blog.wordsearchbible.com/2020/09/24/9-reasons-you-might-not-see-your-books-yet-and-what-to-do-about-it/ to see if any of those reasons apply to you and follow any instructions on that page.

This was incorrectly linked to a retired Ebook version we had of that title. It's now been switched to unlock the Logos Research edition instead.

Hi Bradley,
Thanks for the prompt feedback. I know this is a lot of work for you guys so let me say you guys are awesome. Concerning the above, I see that it now shows as a logos Research Edition at https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/library-migration but both the web and the desktop app indicate I don't own the resource. Do I need to wait overnight? Thanks. See screenshots below.

Hi Bradley,
I know this is a bunch of work for you guys so let me again say thank you. I can see on https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/library-migration that is shows as available as a Logos Research addition but the web and desktop apps (desktop shown below indicated the resource is locked). Do I need to wait until tomorrow?

The library migration page is updated immediately, but the actual license change (from our switching the resources) may take a few hours to roll out across all accounts that own it.

Has anyone received their Ryrie Study Notes?
No. This is listed as 0:723 at https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/catalog and is "Not Started".
Update: It looks like we do have this resource in Logos, so we've unlocked the corresponding Logos edition.

Hi Richard, the same thing is happening to me.
It is not downloading into my Logos library either.
In fact, I have 2696 resources in my Wordsearch Library, and only 1171 are in my Logos Library.

How did you determine this number?
And note that nothing extra will download if you already had the resources in Logos. For example, if you purchased the same journals in both Logos and Wordsearch, you wouldn't get any new resources downloaded when we merged your Wordsearch account into your Logos account, because you already had those resources.

Hi Bradley,
I am good now. Thanks! I checked the migration list and saw all the work Logos is doing is getting our resources to us and the commentaries given to me, I guess to substitute for others not available (3 or the upcoming evangelical biblical theology commentaries). I just want to confirm that commentaries that came over as e-books (such as the Christ Centered Exposition Commentary and the Expository Pulpit Series) will be given to those of us that owned them in Wordsearch as commentaries when Logos produces them, without us having to pay for them. I saw something about how Logos will produce the Chris centered and the EGGNT commentary sets, I guess by the end of the year. Thanks!

I have a lot of books in Wordsearch that I don't in Logos. Some of them: Fire Bible, New Pilgrim Study Bible, Life Essentials Study Bible, Disciple's Study Bible, and many more.

Yes, we haven't converted all the books to Logos format yet. Our goal is to get them done by the end of the year. Your library migration page shows the current status: https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/library-migration

The Ryrie Study Bible finally migrated over to my LOGOS this weekend.
Hope you get yours to working. For some reason the Treasures Commentaries
by Rod Mattoon are taking their time migrating over though. I miss that one,
but trust that Logos(faithlife) will come thru in the end.....Mark

Today we published another batch of almost 400 Faithlife Ebooks converted from Wordsearch resources. (These are new in Logos format, not updates of any existing Ebooks we've already published.)

My most important purchase with Wordsearch was "The Complete Bible Library" (both old and new Testaments). This is besides all the other books that were part of my Wordsearch 10 Library.
In your opinion, when will I begin to see these books and Library transfers into my Logos account?
Thank you,

Any Word on Thompson Chain? Its annoying having to have WS and Logos run simultaneously, although the second monitor helps

Sorry, we don't have any more specific dates for particular resources than our overall goal of converting them all by the end of the year.

OK, a lot of WS resources need to be integrated into Logos and that will take time.
It seems that Logos is waiting until they have a lot done before they download the final versions. Is it possible they can download them as they get them?
If they finish 5 books a week, can they download those 5?
Many WS commentaries, for example, are listed as monographs. Not helpful if you are looking for those commentaries.
Thank you
