Hello.
From what I've found, it is not possible to edit the "Entry Date" on this website, which is a bit annoying since I'm importing data from one account to this new one I'm using, so the books are all sorted randomly. Is it possible to edit the "Your Books" page to remove the entry date? Or, is it possible to sort the books on the "Your Books" page by some other way, such as reading date?
Thank you.

No, can't remove entry date. But you can sort your library by pretty much any data you have. To sort by reading dates, you'd need to have those entered of course. If reading dates is among the columns in your catalogue, just click on it. Alternatively, click on up/down arrow icon and choose what to sort by

You can remove it from your view. To change the columns on the page, click Settings. Then you can pick specific columns. If you want, you can set up 5 different views and swap between them by using the A-E of the Style section.

If you want to do a double sort, sat by author, and then by title, you can do this by first selecting your second sort, and then the main one.
You can remove the entry date from view in settings. It will still be in your entry, but you don't have to see it.

You can also use the "date acquired" field, which is editable, to reflect the date you actually got the books
