Libronix

Logos Bible Software is all about easier Bible study. It consists of a free software engine (the Libronix Digital Library System), addin modules that provide specialized functionality, and collections of electronic books targeted to your needs. The Books on this page were created with the Personal Book Builder- Standard Edition To read them you need to have a PBB reading Key. Electronic books built with the PBB will be readable only by users who have a Libronix PBB Reading Key. The reading key is free and is available only to users who own one of the seven boxed products (e.g., Scholar's Library, Bible Study Library, etc.) This key is included with the PBB and has been included in boxed Logos Bible Software collections since the QB release. It is not included in free downloadable viewers. Users who own a boxed product predating the QB release can determine their eligibility for the free reading key and download it here. (The Private Use Edition is licensed for building books that will only work on the system that built them; the Private Use Edition does not build books for distribution.)

Libronix Tools

As mentioned here: Sermon File Add in Schema for L4?  and here: Will OpenOffice to Libronix filter work in Japanese?. I've been working on an export filter for OpenOffice.org (OOo) which will save your sermon's into the Ready-to-Compile Sermon File format.

I'm glad to report that I have finally released a beta filter.  Right now it does the following:

  • Generates Sermon Files, does not tag illustrations as such.
  • Defaults to NOT publishing the sermon file online.  (you can change this in the code quite simply if you want).
  • Uses the "title" from the properties dialog in OOo to create the internal title for the Libronix Sermon File (LBXSFL)
  • Uses a comma delimited string of keywords  from the OOo properties dialog to fill in the topics for the LBXSFL
  • It uses the Create Date of the document to generate the first date for where you preached it. 
  • It will copy over file comments from the OOo properties dialog into the notes section.
  • Properly imports headings, bold, italics, tables, ordered and unordered lists, including nested lists!
  • Imports hyperlinks!
  • Appears to work across languages (including Greeki and Hebrewi)

It does not:

Jeremiah Burroughs: The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment

I have created a PBBi resource of Jeremiah Burrough's classic, The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment for L3 users. You can download it by clicking the attachment link below.

I love the title of this book, but I am afraid I fall far short of its ideal.

Jeremiah Burroughs was a Puritan preacher who was part of the Westminster Assembly. As part of the Assembly's Independent minority, Burroughs opposed the Presbyterian majority, but did so with grace. Evidently, he was grieved by the divisions between the Calvinistic Episcopalians, Presbyterians and Independents. Richard Baxter later commented if all Episcopalians had been as Archbishop Ussher, all Presbyterians as Stephen Marshall (the great preacher of the Assembly), and Independents as Jeremiah Burroughs, the divisions of the church might soon have been healed.

I wish you a happy and content 2010!

Libronix 3.0g Available and Other News

Submitted by normanjd on Thu, 12/17/2009 - 5:34pm

For those still using Libronixi 3.0, Logos has released a final update. (This actually came out about the same time Logos 4.0 did, but I was not paying attention. Fortunately someone in my Bible Study brought it to my attention.) I am guessing it will be a necessary update for those wishing to move the remaining data from 3.0 to 4.0 when the features are made available in 2010... The link can be found here:

In other news, it looks like Nelson wil be producing new versions of their eBible line after all... Good to know there is still 3rd party support...

Oh, I have suspended development of my Divided Kingdom Timelinesi pending the Logos 4.0 updates due in 2Q 2010... (I'm hoping my hyperlinks will port...) I may upload any I have already done but havn't posted yet in the mean time...

God Bless and Merry Christmasi,
