Thank you for the clarification, Katrin!

I understand that using the 008 field for sorting and filtering is the expected
behavior in Koha, especially since it’s also used by other features like the
date range search in advanced search.

We have tried manually updating some of our records to ensure the 008 field
contains valid publication years. While a few of them now sort correctly, but
most still do not, and the issue persists across many records.

From my observation:  
The first 20 pages of results usually sort correctly by publication year, but
starting from around page 20 onward (depending on the total number of results),
sorting breaks down and becomes inconsistent.

This makes me think that the issue might not only be about which field is used
for sorting, but also how the index handles large result sets or how the data
is stored/normalized in the index.

Could it be that:
- Not all 008 values are being properly extracted or normalized during
indexing?
- Or there's an issue with pagination and how the index returns sorted results
beyond a certain threshold?

Any insight into what could cause this kind of behavior would be greatly
appreciated.

Thank you again for your time and support.
