Is it really not sorted, or is it sorted on something meaningless, like id 
number or order added to the system?  Our current system sorts by id, so you 
usually get the latest-added item first in your search.

I agree with Pat, though, we need to offer people different sorting options, 
and for all searches. Our current system offers three options: by title, by 
author, and by publication date.  I would add at least one option: by add date, 
because people are always wanting to see what DVDs and videos we've added 
recently.

If anyone's interested, you can try our catalog search page here: 
http://www.athenscounty.lib.oh.us/search.html.  We'll be looking to at least 
match the features offered there when we switch to Koha.
