We have long had a function to browse the publication in our repository by Researcher (<a href="http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/view/author_id/">http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/view/author_id/</a>) and these views have worked very well as tools for staff members and repository staff as a quick view of how up to date a person’s list might be.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>However some of these lists are now getting extremely unwieldy due to the sheer number of publications we have, so I’m looking to introduce a few variations into the browse lists.

I have managed sort by date but that uses the full date rather than just the year.
