My Requests Sort by Due Date
Sort by due date ascending:
This brings all items with due dates to the top of the ILL items list and presents the item with the nearest calendar due date at the top, after the items with due dates, your other ILL requests will appear.
 
Sort by due date descending:
Because you are sorting by due date, all items without due dates will appear before items with due dates. If there is a long list of items that don't have due dates, it may take several screens to see the items with due dates. Once these items appear, they will appear in reverse due date order, with the due date farthest away appearing first.
