Interview with Bob Pritchett: Creating a Digital Library
This is the fourth installment in a series of video blog posts (introduced here) sharing the story and culture of Logos Bible Software. Other posts in the series are archived in the Video category.
Logos Bible Software pioneered the digital library concept. In these video clips, Bob describes the original vision for a "massive" 12-volume digital library, explains how new content and book-specific features drove platform redesign, and answers the commonly posed question, "Where did the name 'Libronix' come from?"
- Logos Library System 1.0 (1:12 | 2.28MB)
- A Digital Library System for 10,000 Books (3:18 | 6.22MB)
- Why "Libronix"? (00:25 | 850KB)
