    Organize your library

    You can sort books and audiobooks in iBooks by switching to List view and tapping Most Recent, Titles, Authors, or Categories.

    You can also organize your books and audiobooks in these ways:

    • A grid or list view.
    • Specific collections based on a topic. For example, you can put all your books and PDFs related to your work in a single collection.

    To change or add new Collections, tap the Collections button, or the name of the collection on your iPhone or iPod touch. To rearrange books in your iBooks collections, touch and hold a book, then move it where you want it. (You can't rearrange books in the All Books collection.)

    Ah yes I know about the list view, alas I don't like that view and prefer it being in the bookshelf view. I guess I will just have to wait until they go back to being able to organise it like that. Without having to move them individually.

     

    Thanks for your help though
