!! Introduction
Most if not all your resources will have an /Info/ icon {{$ media:ResInfo1a.png }} on the right side of the resource's toolbar. When you click on the icon Logos will show you information about that resource. The contents of this information page will be similar to the one that you can view in your Library (see item #3 in [[The Library’s toolbar >> library # The Library’s toolbar]]). But the resource's information will contain several items of more specific information which can be useful to yo (…)
Resources will have an /Information/ page accessible via the Panel menu, or an /Info/ icon {{$ media:ResInfo1a.png }} in the toolbar. This information can be useful to your understanding of how Logos uses the resource.
Not all resource information windows will have all the items populated in them. This varies somewhat relative to the resource. Below is typically what you will find in a resource's info window.
The actual content will vary between resource types, but you will typically see the following:
* Image of the cover of the book
* General information on the book
…
* /Citation/ information for this book
* /Copyright/ information on this book
* /Index/ information on how Logos relates to this book
* /Series/
* /Search Fields/ which Logos can search within this book
* /Collections/
* /Support Info/ details specific for Logos
* /Index/ information which affects how Logos accesses this book
* /Search Fields/ which can be used to /Search/ for specific information within the text e.g. /Words of Christ/.
* /Support Info/ with publication/file details specific to Logos.
* /Reverse Interlinear/ information will be seen in books (e.g. bibles) which have that feature.
some resources may have other items not shown above. (e.g. Reverse Interlinear)

So you may ask what all this means to you. Well if you understand how certain books are /Indexed/ then it would help you better arrange them in your [[Prioritization >> Prioritizing]] in your library. For instance books which use Strong's numbering as an index might be prioritized higher in your prioritization of lexicon if you use Strong's numbering when seeking information on original language words. Also when setting up a reading plan, knowing how a book is /indexed/ can help you set the ra (…)
