• Exact Match – If an exact match is found for the ISBN, the book is automatically added to your print library.
• Related Matches – If you would like to use a related match, tap the book. A notification will pop up on the bottom of your mobile device saying that the book is added to your Print Library. Otherwise, select “Done” to return to the ISBN Scanner.
• ISBN Not Found – A message at the bottom of the screen tells you that the ISBN was not found. Select “Done” to return to the ISBN Scanner.
• Title Not in Logos Catalog – A message at the bottom of the screen tells you that the book is currently not available in the Logos catalog.
• Already In Print Library – A message at the bottom of the screen tells you that the book is included in your Print Library. 

When you are finished adding books to your Print Library, tap Done to close the ISBN Scanner.
