"Collections" section of the passage guide should be sorted by book.
The hits in our collections would be far more useful to have them grouped by book, and have the books ordered first by priority, and second by number of hits/relevancy.

Sorting by date of publication would be helpful, to learn the latest info on a passage

Responding to Frank Fenby's concern, the ability users now have to customize titles and "short titles" makes the title-sort more useful.

Guess I would like to see at least two options
1. Author, title - This is standard academic procedure, at least at the seven colleges and graduate schools where I have taught or studied.
2. Star rating - It is possible to star rate all the books in a mid-size personal library (3,000 to 10,000 resources) but it is all but impossible to prioritize all of those books using the current methods.
Title only sorts were the mark of a person will little schooling every place I have studied. A problem with them is that there are many duplicate titles. Plus knowing the author tells you a lot a orientation of the book's content. Titles can also be rather misleading. A publisher sort would make more sense to me than title.
Sorting by count of hits never made sense to me. Maybe I am just uneducated on the value of that method of presentation.

Even better, allow us to choose how to sort "collections" in MyPassageGuide. (i.e., by priority, rank, pub date, etc)
