Watchtower Library on DVD


Recommended Posts

I find it all confusing.... Watchtower Library, Watchtower Online Library, JW Library, jw.org website, JW Language App, JW Sign Language. In my opinion, we should have just one website and one online Library that merges everything together, to keep things streamlined.

1. Watchtower Library ONLY for Windows devices and the BEST for serious research.

2. Watchtower Online Library For non Windows devices and will work with any hardware platform that has an Internet Browser.

3. JW Libray For congregation meetings plus Kingdom Proclaimers  because it is controlled by the organization. They just added in the library under Brochures and Booklets the Memorial Bible Reading Schedule.

4. JW Language App Discontinued.

5. JW Sign Language App designed for the deaf and hard-of-hearing community because they use video instead of text.

 

Because we have so many different operating systems and hardware devices your wish for one app and one website would leave a large portion of the global community without tools to build their spirituality and relationship with Jehovah. Just as we keep up with new truths so likewise we keep up with tools which make being a kingdom proclaimer easier and more enjoyable. 

 

In addition, have you never heard of the phrase "information at our fingertips"? Bill Gates introduced this concept as a keynote address at the COMDEX/Fall 1990 trade show, where he outlined a "crusade" to make all necessary data instantly accessible from a desktop personal computer. So we all had 35 years to learn and get used to handling data.

JW Sign Language is no more either.  It was merged with JW Library.  So only 3 libraries.

I'm happy that Watchtower Library is continued to be supported and developed.  Find it the best for searching and research.

I like the look and feel of WOL.  And it can be used on any device, including Linux or Macs without extra software.

On my tablet, I will use a combination of JW Library and WOL.  I download current and most used publications on JWL for meetings and ministry, but use WOL for the rest.

 

The latest WTL update, I guess will be included with update 2602.  If you want to uninstall and install the new version before then, I suggest you first backup the rs_data folder + the file named update. within the Watchtower Library program folder, and then restore after installing.  This will save time and data downloading the publications again.
