If you’re like I am, as you’re studying a topic or passage you’re interested in what a specific author thinks about it. What are A.W. Tozer’s insights about worship? What does John Wesley or Charles Spurgeon say about John 3:16?
To zero in on a specific author you want to create author search collections which are incredibly easy to do with these simple steps:
- Choose Tools | Collections
- Name the collection the same name as your author such as Charles Ryrie Books (A)
- Type this text in the Rule box: author:”First name Last name” such as author:”Charles Ryrie” (B)
- Click New to create another author collection and always include this in the Rule box: (C)
- Filter name author
- Followed by a colon with no spaces on either side of the colon
- With the author’s first and last names included within double quotation marks
- Such as author:”Robert Morgan”
To select the author collection to be search:
- Click the Search icon
- Select Basic as the search type (D)
- Click the resources to search drop down list (E)
- Select your desired author’s collection of resources (F)
- Execute your word, phrase, reference, etc. search as normal (G)
- Notice the search results are all from the specific author’s resources (H)
And for live, hands-on training, be sure to register for an upcoming Camp Logos, including National Camp Logos in Bellingham, WA.
If you can’t attend a live seminar or perhaps you live outside the United States, you can purchase Camp Logos Video Training as a downloadable Logos resource, which is now on pre-pub.
