Access to Logos Software & Library

Instead of paying hundreds or thousands of dollars for textbooks, you get immediate access to over twenty-three thousand five hundred dollars ($23,500) in digital books and software resources (over 1,300 resources). Logos Bible Software and Redemption Seminary’s custom digital library for biblical studies is available to you as soon as you enroll. This access includes all of the Logos Mobile Education courses used in the Masters of Biblical Studies program. After you enroll, you can start watching courses and using the full power of this library with the first non-mentored course.

Library for Life

Since we want every graduate of the master’s program to maintain their effectiveness and continue growing after graduation, the seminary gives graduates (of the master’s program) a robust custom Logos reference library as a graduation gift. We also provide ways for auditor members and students who complete the certificate program to maintain access to the resources or purchase them at a discount through Redemption.

Updates to Library Content

Redemption Seminary will update the contents of the Redemption Library from time to time without notice. A common reason for an update is a change in course curricula that requires a resource not currently in the library. Redemption will provide this resource in such a situation. It may also remove resources that are not required in the curriculum. These changes will only affect those who are currently enjoying access to the library as students or auditors. They will also determine what Redemption provides as a graduation gift. These changes will not affect library content that has been previously gifted. In order to maximize the usefulness of the library to students, Redemption may create different custom libraries for different programs. It may also include materials that are “access only” while enrolled and not part of the gift for graduating master's program students. The description below describes the current content of the master’s program graduation gift.

Updates to Logos

Logos packages have three parts.

  • Library of Resources (books and course videos)

  • Features

  • Software Platform (version level)

The first two parts of the Redemption library are fixed and defined by the contents of the custom Redemption MABS library. These do not change with new releases or updates from Logos. Redemption ensures that the scholarly features required to work through the courses are contained within the Redemption custom library regardless of new releases from Logos.

The software platform does change with regular updates from Logos. Logos has always provided free updates to its software platform to its customers.

For these reasons, Redemption does not upgrade student libraries to future versions. Students are eligible for the Logos Academic Discount program and can add resources and features to their library at their discretion.
