This blog post is a list of published works of SAO, ordered generally by their place on the time-line. For a more detailed timeline with specific information about dates and such, check out the Wiki's Timeline page. (It's also more up-to-date, considering I only update this page when prompted to, and I usually forget about it completely)
For most of the Volumes, there is no break in their timeline. However, Volume 1 has a large time-skip, so I broke it down into chapters.
Note: The Bolded Floor is the floor at which the front-lines are at by this point. Italicized floors means that it's only information from the anime.
