For example, the "last modified" date for the book might not change, so when the new "book" is sent the new metadata might not be sent with it.

If you look in CC's Book Details, does the file name for the news book contain a date? Is a new book created when a subsequent news edition is downloaded?
Not sure where to see the file name in CC's Book Details, so I looked at the specific file name in 'ES File Explorer' which allows me to navigate to the path where the files are stored in Flash on my Nexus tablet. The file name for each and every new source I have downloaded contains a date. For instance in this case (CNET) the file name is CNET News_2015-6-9.mobi All the others are similar... News source name followed by the date.

Update: If I go to 'choose items to display' in CC's settings and set the path to be displayed, I get the same file name (preceded by the path in storage of course...)
