Hi, Paul-- Our catalog does the same thing! I confirmed that all the titles sorting on "Die..." have a second indicator of "4" in the 245 field, so should be sorting on the second word of those titles, but they are not--they're sorting on that first character of the definite article: http://keys.bywatersolutions.com/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=ccl%3Dti%252Cphr%253Aschiffe&sort_by=title_az&addto= Thanks for calling this to our attention! I looked, but couldn't find anything about it in the Bugzilla--maybe someone else with better search skills can find something? Best, heather ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Heather Hernandez Technical Services Librarian Cultural Resources and Museum Management Division San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park heather_hernandez@nps.gov 415-561-7032 (voice) 415-556-3540 (fax) http://www.nps.gov/safr/historyculture/library-collections.htm "The sailor does not pray for wind, he learns to sail."--Gustaf Lindborg
