When viewing a library the books can be sorted on any column were the heading text is in blue.

Clicking once will sort in ascending order, clicking it again will sort in descending order. Currently sorting is available on one column at a time.

I've been told book titles only use the first 20 or so charactors for sorting, so if 2 (or more) titles have the same first 20 charactors they will be sorted together but not more than that.

One useful way to sort books is tagging books with the tags in a specific order.

Example
Fantasy, LotR, #3
Sci-Fi, Star Trek, DS9
Sci-Fi, Star Trek, TNG
Sci-Fi, Star Wars, Han Solo Trilogy, #1
Sci-Fi, Star Wars, Han Solo Trilogy, #2
Sci-Fi, Star Wars, Han Solo Trilogy, #3
Sci-Fi, Star Wars, Rogue Squadran

Edited because my example was flawed

Readafew:

Note that tags sort alphabetically (or reverse alphabetically) in strict tag order. Hence when sorting by tags Star Trek would come between Fantasy and Star Wars.

TAG ORDER is very important.
