I didn't find another older bug report for this, but maybe I just didn't spot it. It would be nice if the facets could be used to limit materials to certain range. This could be having the publication years as facet entries or something nicer allows you to limit to a year range using a graphical tool.
+100 - our patrons would love this feature. We'd love to see the ability to limit within a date range and to be able to have links for titles added in the last 30 days, 60 days, etc. This is the type of functionality that people are used to in websites such as Amazon.
