Describe the feature you'd like
On some shelves I need a alphabetical order. I have to go to the PHPMyAdmin, Export a List of books in shelf X, Order them in Excel and drag them in Bookstacks.

It would be nice to have a "sort alphabetical" button in the shelf edit. Not default for all, Sometimes it make sense, sometimes not. Only have the possibility to do so.

Describe the benefits this feature would bring to BookStack users
Less grey hair. Sorting is essential.

As part of the changes in #4049, there is now a little dropdown with some sort helpers when editing a shelf:

This will be part of the next feature release, so I'll therefore close this off.
Thanks @E-Fail for the original request.
