Actually this didn't have an effect. On the device three of my books still show the date of 04-08-2016. When I connect my device to the computer and open Reader (Sony's software), those same three books still show 04-08-2016 as "Date Added."
But your post led me to look for a pattern with those three particular books, and I've now figured out why they all have that future date. I have a calibre plug-in called "Manage Sony x50 Reader Book List," which allows me to set which three books I want to appear on the device's main screen. The three books with the future date are the same three books I set for my main screen.
It seems the default behaviour is that the three books which appear on the device's main screen are the three books that were added most recently. Therefore, if I select older books for my main screen, the plug-in changes their "date added" to one year in the future so that they will always meet the parameter of being the most recently added books.
I also noticed that when, via the plug-in, I choose different book(s) to appear on my main screen, the previous book(s) revert back to their original "date added".
