Record/Scrape and display dates of books

I think it would be useful to know when the books have been published, specially for the following cases:

  • Series has been in a hiatus for a long time or if it has been previously in one.
  • Getting a rough idea of how long it takes between volumes to be published.
  • How hard might be able to find print/digital versions of them

Approved, with the caveats I mentioned in the features thread around edition issues causing noise :slight_smile:

Description of your request or bug report:

It would be really helpful to see a book’s release date from the book page instead of having to open the Amazon link to see this information. Most Amazon book pages have this information, and the date can be placed in the section that already includes the number of pages and ISBN.

Is this maybe the same as Record/Scrape and display dates of books ?

Yes. Moving threads and votes.

Probably this would make sense to be done just after the edition handling goes live.

Delaying it would mean backlog of scrapping I’m not sure Amazon would be too happy about…

Would be nice to see the year of publication of books directly from Natively. Maybe could be a filter too / a way to sort search results.

I’d like to have month and day, too, if available.

BTW: movies also do not have that information.
