Magazines and similar items issued monthly are a good candidate for what you want to do. I do something similar for some magazines I collect, and the recipe system also inserts the date into the title of most newspapers and magazines.

I'd suggest chaley's second option and set the template as:
Code:
Template: {title} - {series} {series_index}
You can then save this 'search and replace' for reuse at some later time. You might also find that a recipe could be written to do this automatically (fetch the books on a scheduled basis).
