Add facets into the Collection Discovery UI
While we are really happy that the functionality to search withing collections is planned, we propose to implement the facets also for the Collection Discovery.
Facets are very useful to limit results in big collections for discovery and browsing, when the user doesn't know exactly what he is looking for. We do have several big collections.
Also, functionality would be more consistent with the Primo Search interface.
Hi,
The facets in the Collection Discovery page are now available in the New Primo Discovery user interface - from June 2025 release.

Must feature for efficient user experience in searching digital collections and implementing found sources in upcoming research. Other way around, it can actually encourage new research routes, by visually crystalizing interconnections between various collections and thus "throw forward" unexpected topics for research. -
