Any chance we'll see some of these Carta materials in Logos? I always see these at SBL and think "wow, those are great visuals."

Or perhaps The Sacred Bridge?

Sacred Bridge!

They also have a couple of nice books I would not mind having in my Logos library. Ahituv's Echoes From The Past and Yardeni's The Book of Hebrew Script.
The Book of Hebrew Script.
Could be nice with: "Specimens of Mediaeval Hebrew Scripts" Beit Arie, Yardeni, Engel et al. (The Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities) but I am not sure how many Logos users are interested in Hebrew scripts and manuscripts...
Ben ... have you sent these suggestions to suggest@logos.com?
YES!!! PLEASE!!!
I'll buy in a heartbeat.
In fact, the idea of suggesting The Illustrated Atlas of Jerusalem has been in my head a couple of times the last few days. Just not when I was at the computer.
(And if you don't put these in prepub soon I'll be seriously tempted to buy you-know-what and the-link-that-has-now-been-removed! [;)] )
I have indeed sent these to suggest@logos.com
I also sent an email to Carta, and got a very positive response that seemed to indicate the ball was in Logos' court, so...
Has everyone else sent this in to suggest@logos.com?
Yes, please! [Y]
Definitely interested!!
I'm definitely in!
I too would definitely buy this. I have it in hardback, but if it was in Logos, I could use it in my classes. It is such a great classroom tool. Send the pictures to powerpoint, and excerpt important parts of the text for your notes accompanying the powerpoint slides.

Bump! I also came across this one recently, which would be awesome to have in Logos:
Carta’s Illustrated History of Christianity (200 maps, 240 illustrations)
[Y]
Bump....would like to see the Carta Bible Atlas on Logos.
Please add everything Carta publishes to Logos! Need I remind you that a different certain Bible program has already done so? [:^)]
Here is an example of a fantastic resource from Carta not yet mentioned:

As I recall, this thread was started on the very day that program announced the Carta resources (certainly not many days after), and as you can see from my first post the OP originally included a direct link to that announcement. So I think they know. [:D]
The Illustrated Atlas of Jerusalem
I see this has now been updated: The Carta Jerusalem Atlas (Formerly Illustrated Atlas of Jerusalem).
Another one that looks interesting is Carta's Illustrated Encyclopedia of the Holy Temple.
I've never used the Carta Atlas but your post reminded me of my favorite atlas that I have ever used.
I just wrote a suggestion to Logos. – The Macmillan BibleAtlas but Yohanon Aharoni and Michael Avi-Yonah. What I love about this atlas is that it has specific maps for most of the major Bible events that would benefit from maps.
http://www.amazon.ca/Macmillan-Bible-Atlas-Yohanan-Aharoni/dp/0025006053
This by far is the best Bible Atlas that I have owned andwould love to see it in Logos.
Can anyone compare the Carta with the Macmillan?

Thank you for your kind words. We at Carta are grateful.

Please, please!!!!!
For those of you who haven't yet found out, there is now a Carta suggestion at Logos' new Uservoice site for prepubs: Add books from Carta. Please go add your vote[s ]. And then add the remainder of your votes to other suggestions -- preferably mine.[:D]
(There is also a new Uservoice site for CP's, with another ten new votes for you to spend: http://communitypricing.uservoice.com/forums/183260-general/filters/top.)
I am on board to get this Carta resource as soon as Logos announce it. "A Comprehensive Etymological Dictionary of the Hebrew Language for Readers of English"
Time for another bump. Cast your vote today!
Keep on waiting for this...[Y]
[Y] One question - does anyone know whether it is using the metric system?
[Y] Thumbs up again.
Fabulous work I own it in Accordance.

What really impressed me was their using the Book of the Wars of YHWH for much of their locational information. I'm disappointed Moses had a copy in his library, but Logos refuses to carry it.[8-|]
..
Veli, from what I've seen (just spot-checked a few places), there is both U.S. and metric measurement given.

Given that it is now seven years since you posted this, I think it might be safe to say "not in our lifetime" [:(]

I still choose to be optimistic about Faithlife carrying these someday but I understand and share in your disappointment that it has not taken place yet.
I wish that there was something more we/I could do to facilitate this happening.

I know! Me too! It is ONLY the maps/Carta that are tempting me to try out Accordance. I have waited so long for Logos to have good maps, but it just hasn't happened. Hopefully it will soon.
The latest update from Faithlife (from Phil Gons) was posted here a few months ago: https://community.logos.com/forums/p/148035/921322.aspx#921322
So, Bradley, what is the latest? That's been 3 months ago.
I know as much as you.
(But I'm guessing if Phil didn't come back and post "yes", the answer is "no".)
If the answer is “no,” wouldn’t it be better for Phil to let us know that, rather than unnecessarily prolonging our wait for something that still wouldn’t be available in Logos?
I’d think we’d all prefer knowing one way or the other (or even an update that he’s still trying to work something out).
Thanks!

Yes, sorry, I shouldn't speculate/guess like that.
It's more likely that he just has no news to share yet.
+1 for The Sacred Bridge
Any official news regarding Carta licensing? Can you tell us whether it's still being pursued, or not possible?
Another Bump...for good measure.
Today, I thought, “Carta for Christmas!”
Unless they skip prepup and get published like some resources in the past, I don’t think it’s going to happen. It’d be nice if it did.
Personally, I’m not planning on duplicating the set anymore unless it was available in Spanish. Why contract negotiations have failed between CARTA publishers and FL is beyond comprehension, but it doesn’t matter anymore.

PS. Anyway, Bump for those who still want it! 👍😁👌
What a wonderful thought. If only....
