Let me clarify....sorry

So I have MULTIPLE libraries and all structured like this.

First separated by type (novels, tech...ect.)

This sorted by authors name unless its a specific book regardless of author like Dr. Who.

If the image doesn't show click here.

So as you can see LOTS of libraries I now have to recreate.

Hoping I can cut and paste the old data to a new install so I don't need to rebuild this every time.

BTW...If you are going to say Calibre sorts it already for me but...I am OCD and my brain wants this....you can argue with my therapist if you disagree ...lol
