Use Reading Lists to Study Particular Themes

Print Friendly and PDF

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.

Skip ahead to:

Access a Reading List

Add an Article to a Reading List

Create a New Reading List

 

Access a Reading List

Open the Reading Lists tool from the Tools menu

Open Reading Lists Tool

 

Browse available lists by scrolling down the column. Click More >> to view additional lists. You can also search for a list by entering a term in the Reading List search bar (1). Click a list (2) to see the resources it contains.

Select Reading List Resources About Early Christian Creeds

 

Resources with a check box next to them are available in your Library. Click links to open the resources in a new panel and keep track of your progress by checking the box.

Open Resource From Reading List

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.

 

Add an Article to a Reading List

Open a Reading List and click Edit at the top of the Reading List panel. This opens the list in the Logos Wiki in your default web browser. Click the Edit tab.

Select Reading List Edit Option Edit Reading List In Browser

 

Within a resource, copy a link to the required position.

Copy Link To Resource For Reading List

 

This creates a ref.ly link that will look something like:

https://ref.ly/logosres/augustineages?hw=Symbolum

Before you add it to the Reading List, you need to provide some additional information to create a string of the form:

[[Label >> link]] | Description

(The "| Description" is optional)

This will result in a text string like:

[[Augustine and Creeds >> https://ref.ly/logosres/augustineages?hw=Symbolum]] | Augustine's view on creeds

Paste the link into the Reading List and click the Save button

In the Reading list, this will appear as:

Augustine and Creeds | Augustine’s view on creeds

Note: You can edit the text after the | symbol without altering the link.

 

Create a New Reading List

If there is no Reading List section for the topic you’re working on, follow these steps to add one:

In a browser,  navigate to topics.logos.com and click Create New Page.

Start To Create New Reading List

 

Replace New Page (CHANGE THIS) with the name of your page; then paste the following text into the code box:

!! Reading List
{{?set section::readinglist}}
{{?set author::Your Name}}

Replace Your Name with your first and last name.

Set Up New Reading List

 

Then you can add articles to the Reading List in the same way as outlined above.
