Again you can do this. But you are going to have to edit all the artists to list it that way ie from Adkins, Trace to Trace Adkins. Then it will sort under T for Trace like you want.

I've always listed it as Trace Adkins alphabetized under A for adkins. Are people really getting to a point they do not know how to find an artist without having to look at the first name only? I never had an issue for 13 years, but seems like the last couple years, people do not understand first name - last name alphabetized by last name. I get people showing me the books saying they are all out of order & don't know how to find anything. I ask what are you looking for (last night for example), he said Garth Brooks. I told him it's under B for Brooks. He looked like a deer in headlights. Then walked away. Came back a couple minutes later saying he is in the B's but nothing is in order. I told him to bring me the book on the page he was on. He cam back & found an artist Beyonce Knowles (K). I told him he was in the K, turned the page over to B & pointed to Garth Brooks. Then gave him a generalized Dewey Decimal System education. I THINK he got it after that as he didn't seem to have a problem after that.......sorry for the rant.
