    I do that using "collections". you can find that under tools, and then keep scrolling down to library.

    THen you would use language like "Type: Bibles" (minus the quotes) to find all of your titles that are bibles.

    There are other ways to search also:
    Type: Bible
    Title: Bible
    Author: "name"

    You can make some pretty granular collections - eg only expository commentaries on the book of Ruth older than 1900. Even more powerful if you have tagged your books, and incorporate your tags into the search.

    You can also switch to the "Details View" in the library panel (using the "Change resource display mode" button at the top of the panel). Then click on the "Type" column to group by resource type.

    If that column doesn't appear, right click on the column headers and selection the Type option.

    To further what Andrew has suggested, you can also use shift+click on a 2nd/3rd/4th etc column to further filter.

    So with click 1 on Type, you could shift click on Author for example to sub-arrange the Types by Author etc
