the library seems to have problems displaying names where the LN starts with St. eg, Edward Rutherfurd is displayed in the meta data screen as "Rutherfurd, Edward" and in the library screen as "Edward Rutherfurd". Ellie St Clair is displayed in the meta data screen as "St Clair, Ellie" and in the Library screen the same way. Have tried putting a period (full stop) after the "St" result is the same. If I use "Saint Clair" the name is sorted under C not S Any ideas?
