Bill, you and I are both too ignorant here. They tell me that my Complete Works of Van Til are hyperlinked to Barth's Church Dogmatics in over 6,000 places. That would seem to be of some advantage if I wanted to instantly jump from Van Til to Barth. However, if my goal is simply to read a person, for example, Warfield, using either Ages or the PBB version for Libronix would work.

Searches in Libronix include the PBB books in your library and seem to work as quickly as they do on regular Logos produced books. A "passage search," however, however will not automatically include a PBB commentary in its search.

The key is to include your PBB resources in one of your "collections." That way you can search the collection to effectively access your material. For example, I got John Flavel for free from Still the Truth. It included a half dozen or so of his books. These appear both in my John Flavel collection and my Puritan Collection. I am able to search either collection to find Puritan (or John Flavel) hits. In fact, Libronix took less than a second to produce 211 hits on "wisdom" in the half dozen books in my Flavel Collection.
