We’ve been working on Books.Logos.com for a long time, and a beta form of the site has finally been made live. Here’s the text from the site:

We have more than 8,000 classic works from seminary libraries, and we're still scanning more. During the beta period you can search and view all of the books for free.

Use the search box in the upper left to search the entire library. When you've selected a book, you can use the search box on the right side to search within just that book.

Use author:Wilkinson to find all the books by Wilkinson, or title:canon to find books with "canon" in the title. You can even search for Bible references!

Books are still being uploaded to the server; there’s a whole lot of data and it takes awhile. One of the best features of the site is the ability to search by Bible reference (try that, Google). Just type your ref in the search box and hit enter. No special code, it’ll figure out if it is a Bible reference.

The default display is black and white images (they’re smaller and faster), but you may need to view color images for some books or scripts. There’s a little icon by the page indicator to switch to color.

One particular favorite that I’ve run across is Edward William Grinfield’s Scholia Hellenistica in Novum Testamentum: Philone ed Josepho Patribus Apostolicis allisq. Ecclesiae Antiquae Scriptoribus Necnon Libris Apocryphis Maxime Depromta. Huh? It indexes cross references between the NT and several non-NT books (Philo, Josephus, Fathers). Pretty cool.

Check it out, remember it is still in development, and make sure to leave some feedback at the specified email address (books@logos.com).
