 PyAirbyte supports structured JSON logging, which is disabled by default. To enable structured
 logging in JSON, set `AIRBYTE_STRUCTURED_LOGGING` to `True`.
+
+You can add your own log handlers to the global logger by calling `get_global_file_logger()` and
+then adding your own handlers to the logger object. For example, to add a STDERR handler, you can
+use the following code:
+
+```python
+import sys
+import logging
+
+from airbyte.logs import get_global_file_logger
+
+logger = get_global_file_logger()
+if logger:
+    stderr_handler = logging.StreamHandler(sys.stderr)
+    stderr_handler.setLevel(logging.INFO)
+    logger.addHandler(stderr_handler)
+```
+
+By default, connector logs are isolated from the global logger. To disable this behavior and write all
+connector logs to the main logger as well, set `ISOLATED_CONNECTOR_LOGS` to `False`.
