Can MP Seminars consider doing a series on making the best use of Reader Editions?
Sadly, the days of Logos consistently and robustly tagging academic resources appear to be behind us. Many newer academic titles are no longer tagged for research in the way many of us have grown accustomed to over the years.
To be clear, the vast library of resources that were carefully tagged in earlier years will remain valuable for a long time. Those tools are not going away, and they continue to support serious academic work.
However, for those of us who want to meaningfully engage with new and emerging scholarship, the reality is changing. Increasingly, we are going to have to do more of the heavy lifting ourselves. Reader Editions are becoming more central to that work, whether we like it or not.
Because of this shift, a practical series on how to get the most out of Reader Editions would be incredibly helpful. Guidance on workflows, annotation strategies, and ways to compensate for the lack of traditional tagging would serve a lot of users who are trying to stay current without abandoning Logos as a research environment.
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.
- The main reason I have for books in Logos is for note taking. In using the Notes tool you are creating your own tagging system. Make links 馃敆 to other books and add tags at the bottom of the notes. Review MP鈥檚 videos on Notes.
- Faithlife bot reply: "Regarding your question about Logos and academic resource tagging: Based on the information available, there is no official statement indicating that Logos has stopped consistently or robustly tagging academic resources. Logos continues to provide access to tagged media and resources within its platform. If you have a specific concern about a particular resource or tagging feature, please let me know, and I can look into it further for you. Is there anything else I can assist you with?"
- You could use Microsoft's Snipping tool to capture the notes you want to take. Just a thought. I use it for a lot of things.
