In the last couple of weeks I’ve been delinquent from my blog while helping Tyndale’s web development team to create the online edition of the NLT Study Bible. It’s been a lot of fun to work on this project — seeing the NLT Study Bible take shape as a web application is exciting, and I enjoy working with an enthusiastic and talented team of people like this one. It’s also interesting to see the similarities and differences between print design & typesetting and web design & programming.
Here are a couple of highlights about the online edition:
• Permanent registration for those who buy the print edition.
• It includes all of the features of the print edition.
• Fully searchable NLT text (of course!).
• Linking of all Bible references.
• The ability to create personal study notes (not right at launch, but in a later release).
• Full print resolution maps, illustrations, and other visual aids (for personal or ministry use).
One of our goals with the online edition is to give people a variety of ways to connect with the NLT Study Bible personally and experientially. I’m not allowed to say more than that right now, but I stay tuned to this blog and the NLT blog for updates over the next few weeks and months.

The ESV Study Bible has pretty banners (except that it has ESV on them) available. Do you have any banners for the NLT Study Bible?
I would love to display them on my blog.
Thanks.
Hi, Stan,
Good to hear from you. I'll forward the query to Laura Bartlett, who is handling these things.
Sean,
Thank you.
Still loving my review copy of the NLT Study Bible.
Truly an amazing piece of work.
Good Morning,
Any idea when the later release that will allow personal study notes will be offered?
All the best,
John
I'm really happy to start getting involved with the online study & have been reviewing the site. Can anyone help w/finding a book of the bible that can help me study strong women that have followed their faith? - Melissa Hudson
