Ability to use facets to refine/filter Showcase results
It would be helpful for patrons to be able to refine Showcase results by selecting facets as in the advanced search (e.g., to filter by availability, location, format, etc.).

Our old catalog had automated lists for new and on-order items. With Vega, this is no longer an option. We're attempting to create a New and On-order showcase using record sets of newly purchased items. However, there is no way for patrons to filter based on collection or material type. It would be very helpful for us, considering we no longer have the automated booklists as an option.

It would also be helpful for patrons to be able to sort the showcase titles (e.g., newest-to-oldest/oldest-to-newest; by title ascending/descending).

This would be very helpful. Before Vega Discover, we would often create general featured lists for a topic that would contain resources for all ages. We now have to create separate lists for adults and children since there isn't a way to filter the list by audience. When we are featuring a topic on our Discover Home Page, we then have 2 showcases for the same topic, rather than one with the ability to filter.
