I think it might be possible to use the template language to check if Read? is true, and if it is, use a SONY renaming rule to append (Read) to the genre-based Collection name, creating a new Collection for read books. If something along these lines is possible, would someone mind explaining how to set this up?
You can do this by creating a composite custom column that combines #genre and #read into a single value, then creating collections from this new column instead of from #genre. For example, the template for the composite column could be
Code:
{#genre:ifempty(Unknown)} ({#read:switch(yes,Read,Unread)})
