Computer software[edit]
- Scriptures software This has all the LDS scriptures on CD-Rom, it only costs $6, some of the cool things about the software is that you can make notes as long as you want, in as many verses as you want, without getting the margins of your scriptures messy. One sad thing though, you can’t highlight.
- swordsearcher.com This software costs around $60, it has a fairly large library of books, and you can create your own book on the software, so other users can download, and search right along with the regular books.
- logos.com This is by far the BEST Bible study software I have ever seen. One awesome thing about this library, is that it is an ‘open library’ meaning that Logos is always adding books to the library that you can buy. There are thousands and thousands of different books, the price of the software ranges from $150-$4,300 depending on what you want. You can go to the comparison page to find out more.
