Zotero's sorting functions make it very easy to sort through your library and collections. The following will explain how to use Zotero to quickly sort through your collections. Also considering watching the sorting screencast.

To sort items in a collection click on any of the information categories at the top of the middle column. For example, if you click on “Title” all your items will be sorted alphabetically by title. If you click on “Title” the order will be reversed. Similarly, if you click on “Creator” your items will be sorted alphabetically by creator, and if you click “Creator” again the order will be reversed.

To sort by other categories you can click on the icon in the top left corner of your center column. From the dropdown menu you can add and remove categories to the center column.
