It seems to me, several versions back, I changed the display on some of the other unusual fields we use without having to edit the XSL templates (maybe they weren't as odd as I thought they were). It would be nice (as the librarian half of the team) to be able to change this sort of thing without

Hi, Paul-- Our catalog does the same thing! I confirmed that all the titles sorting on "Die..." have a second indicator of "4" in the 245 field, so should be sorting on the second word of those titles, but they are not--they're sorting on that first character of the definite article: http://keys
