Once I enter a value... I haven't found a way to remove it. I mean, I want to have a date for some books but for others the date field should be blank or unknown.
I assume that the date is a custom column.

Three ways to clear a custom date:

1) In edit metadata (single), click the "Clear" button under the box for the date.

2) In edit metadata (multiple), click the "Apply changes" box leaving the date empty.

3) In the spreadsheet view, change the date to year: 0101, month: 01, day: 01. (And no, there isn't a way to add a "clear button" here).
