I look at a table’s properties in Oracle and it has ‘LOGGING: YES’. How can I query that log, or if it’s in a file, where can I find it?

Logging on a table just means that all DML on the table will generate REDO, eg, if the server crashes the table will be recoverable. If you have LOGGING turned off, then some types of DML (direct load) will not cause redo, and may not be recoverable after a crash.
This option is something that you would mainly use in a data warehouse I believe.
A good article on it can be found here
