Based on my 'old' library screen I haven't bought a book for that account since May 2015, but my 'new' library screen informs me that I bought 32 books on the 24th April, 2016. Clearly tosh!

And I didn't import any of my Sony account books to Kobo, so that can't account for it, and they are a mixture of DRM, DRM free and 'Buy now' .....
The column is "Date added', not "Date Purchased". While it is reasonable to assume that the date added is the same as the purchased date, there is something else going on. The delete and re-add might change it. But, in this case, I think that Kobo is doing cleanup of the database or rebuilding it and are losing the date. Or it was never stored in the first place and has now been set to when the process was run.
