My name is Michel Pauw and I am a missionary for Wycliffe Bible Translators, working with SIL in Papua New Guinea. I work as translation advisor for the Aramba Bible Translation Project in the jungle of Southwest of Papua New Guinea. Besides I am the Academic Dean of the Pacific Institute of Languages, Arts and Translation in Ukarumpa, located in the Eastern Highlands in Papua New Guinea.
Yearly, we train about 300-400 students representing 75-100 different language groups from all across the country to become national Bible Translators.
Enjoy this channel as I continue to add new videos about my work for Wycliffe Bible Translators!
Thank you for showing the value of an obscured feature! Helpful and superb presentation! I am wondering about the "send all hyperlinks here." Is there a way to set this to always be on for my bible? It seems that this setting is deselected by default when I open a Bible. I see that I can turn it on and save a layout, but it would be nice if I could tell Logos to always have "send all hyperlinks here" enabled at all times by default in my preferred English Bible.
Do you have a suggestion to show non-versified books to see on a specific verse. I just got a free book this month named 'Revealing Jesus As Messiah: Identifying Isaiah's servant of the Lord' that doesn't show in passage guide too. Thank You
Nice! When I dove deeper into Logos, I had to search all the stuff you describe on my own. With this video other newco can save a lot of time (and money). Looking on the spreadsheet you linked in the description: Could it be that Verbum packages are missing and if so: are you planning to include them in the future?
If you have 2 monitors with the library open in each by separate windows you can search in one of the library's (have both Prioritized books open in each screen) the book goes to the bottom of the prioritized books in the first window, then just move it to the other window in the prioritized area that you want the book to go. Hope this makes sense.
Is there a work-around for Mac users? I've tried several times to export my Pages file to a docx. The conversion is successful but I get a error in building the empty file. I've looked at the file several times to make sure it is in a docx format and it it. Not sure what's going on.
You don't need a workaround. The errors also show up when I do it. You can simply ignore the error. It probably has to do with the fact that the document is empty ;-)
I started watching your How to Create Prioritization Headings video, and when I added the first item as you recommended (=====ADVANCED PRIORITIZED RESOURCES FOR BDAG=====), I received an error message: "Build failed with two errors, 1 warnings" / "Error compiling book." Any idea what this is about? I have Logos 9.
Thanks Michel! How do you prioritize single commentaries from a series? When I drag a commentary to the prioritize list, it shows the series heading, with all the commentaries included. For example, if I drag Genesis from NAC to the list, it shows: New American Commentary: 44 volumes. Thx
Right-click the resource in your library and select Prioritize this resource. The resource will then move to the bottom of your prioritization list and you need to drag it up to where you want it to be.
Thank you very much! I‘s a great help! I tried to build my priorities as shown in the video with adepting some changes. On the very top, I have the DCH and Bauer/Aland with Advanced Prioritisation. Following is my top bible, the german “Einheitsübersetzung”. Right-clicking on a lemma in it e.g. in Acts 1,1 and scrolling down, I find the indication of five german language dictionaries with lower priorities. When I right-click the same lemma in the NIV, five different english language dictionaries with higher priorities are presented. Is this how it should be? And: Being Roman Catholic, I was wondering if it would be beneficial to set up a section with important documents (like the Catechism of the Catholic Church or the Denzinger) on top of the list? Quick Reply
Thanks for your reply and feedback! Interesting, I never noticed that Logos makes a distinction between user languages in its prioritization tool. What I can imagine is that the lemma's in your German Bibles are not linked to their underlying Greek / Hebrew equivalents, which is why it will search for the German word rather than for the underlying Greek/Hebrew word. Hence, it will open up German dictionaries rather than English dictionaries that are also linked to the Greek lemma's. Does that make sense? I don't think Prioritizing those catholic documents will work (but correct me if I'm wrong!). I'd rather suggest putting them in a collection and then adding the collection to the Passage Guide or so. Would that work?
Thanks! I'd recommend just hanging in there for an hour or so and start with your most important resources. It will pay you back many times in the future.
The legacy editions have a strong disclaimer that they are"without features and datasets." I have no idea what that means and dispite research haven't gotten an answer. I haven't purchased a legacy library because of this confusion. I was hoping to get that here. Otherwise your video was very helpful. Thank you.
No need to worry. I have purchased lots of legacy libraries. The point they make is that the Legacy Libraries are "only books". They do not contain any features (as do the Logos 10 libraries). However, the books from the Legacy Libraries work EXACTLY the same in your Logos library as any other book in your library.
Of course we must have the next video with your prioritization method. I would be glad to see the details of each section of your prioritization. Would you be willing to share in consecutive slides or screenshots? I am well aware I don't have your extensive resources nor the need for your particular refinements. How you choose a resource and then determine what opens under what circumstance would be a great aid in developing for myself and my needs. Thank you Michel.
I built me first one while you were instructing. It worked fine and now I will build some more for each section of resources I have in my library. Very good and thanks for this very helpful tool. Maybe Logos will catch up with you soon.
Much appreciated Webinar, gentlemen. But one comment of Jon's nifty "create a collection from a library search tip". I tried it, and discovered that though I can add print books to my library and actually get search results in them, I can't actually add them to a collection. The "collection" I created seemed to have all the books selected, it only displayed the one which was completely a Logos library book.
That's correct. Collections only seem to work for resources that you have in your Logos Library. It would be neat if Logos would also allow us to add Print Books to our collections!!
This was the way it was done as far back as I remember in the Ukarumpa/Aiyura Valley Gadsup tribes (1950s/60s) -- except they didn't have the plastic sheet or tarps back then. Everything was covered in banana leaves, which meant uncovering the food had to be done very carefully. Well-done video. Elsewhere, I've seen the people do it pretty much the same way, except for hollow bamboo tubes being inserted early on, so once the final dirt covering is on, water is poured directly down to the hot stones to create the steam that does the cooking. Delicious!
Really enjoyed this webinar (I watched the recording). I took advantage of the discount and grabbed Platinum Library Upgrade to my Logos 10 package and signed up for the Newsletter and requested to join the Facebook page. Thank you for the discount and all the wonderful information. The more I see Logos in action by those who are much smarter, I see I have such a long way to go...:D
Thanks to you both. I like to use journals more often in Logos for pastoral purposes. Since most of the journal bundles are still quite expensive to buy, what are you thinking about the subscription model? What are the pros and cons?
I don't think the new subscription model will bring an alternative for buying journals. However, the cool thing that I have experimented with, is that AI will be able to summarize a journal article pretty neatly.
@@michelpauw thanks Michel. Yes that's interesting about the subscription of AI and other features. But I have a subscription of a journal package in mind. Here you pay a fee for one year (ca 50 $) and have access to several journals. You can work with the journals, but you do not own them. I ask myself should I spend 500 $ for ownership or is it wiser to rent for 10 years.
@@andrease8228 Personally, I don't like subscription models, as I don't like rentals. If you purchase the journals, they will be yours. You will likely use them more than a couple of years. And if you decide to not use them anymore, you can sell them again, and get most of your investment back.
@@andrease8228 But again, I'm quite positive that journals will not be included in the subscription model. What I know is that some 400 basic resources are included in the subscription. Logos will continue to offer the rest of their resources through normal sales.
