Reading Lists are lists of resources created and shared by other users via the Logos Wiki. These user-curated lists, which cover particular topics and themes, are editable by any Logos user and fully searchable from within Logos and through the Wiki. Find a list to direct your study or create a list for your class and check off the specified passages as you progress.
Note: Changes you make to a reading list affect what all users see, not just what you see. Reading Lists are community lists, not your own personal lists.

Open a resource.
Resources with a check box next to them are available in your Library. Click links to open the resources in a new panel. Keep track of your progress by checking the box.
Note: Resources with a lock icon next to them are either not currently in your Library or not downloaded to your device. Clicking one of these resources opens a panel with information about the resource, a link to purchase or an option to download, and some page previews. Resources with an external link icon direct you to a webpage outside of Logos.
When you close the Reading Lists tool, Logos remembers the list you were viewing and opens that list the next time you access this tool.
