Logos Bible Software Series X offers more content and capability than any previous Logos release.  With its integrated indexing of 2,500 Bible, reference, and ministry titles, the user can simply enter a passage and view notes and information from many resources at once.

Much of the Bible software used by students and those in ministry has centered on a few resources and has offered no way to access information about a passage across more than a small number of translation and language resources.  Scholar's Library includes the most popular English and original language translations, popular reference tools such as Nave's Topical Bible and the NAS Exhaustive Concordance, as well as a significant ministry library in such areas as leadership, homeschooling, small groups, and more.

The Logos - Series X interface is simple and easy to use.  The start screen allows one to enter a passage and then see the results of a search for information related to the passage entered.  The left side of the screen shows the "Passage Guide", a collection of links to information on articles related to the passage.  The top-right section of the screen shows the Bible passage in selected translations and languages.  Finally, the bottom-right portion of the screen shows appearances of the passage in selected works from your digital library.

One feature found to be particularly helpful for ministry applications is the "Other Tools" area.  With one click, the user can view a selected verse in a parallel-versions format, view word study and exegetical guides, or search the entire library of resources for references.  The "Other Tools" area keeps important information only a click away without requiring that an overwhelming amount of data be displayed every time the user enters a new passage.

The Logos Bible Software Series X Scholar's Library includes 230 Bibles and reference titles of over a $5000 value.  Technology updates are free via the Web; and more library items are being added all the time and can be unlocked for an additional cost.  The reviewer found no problems with installation, use, or activation of the product using Windows 98 (2000 and XP are also supported).  With the inclusion of 7,700 illustrations, deluxe maps, and both a Miriam-Webster Thesaurus and College Dictionary, the Logos X Scholars Library is hard to beat for those willing to make the investment.  Importantly, the user will not have to invest much time to learn to use the Library or apply its content in study, ministry, and personal growth.
