Published Date does not appear as a destination field

Hello.

The books in my library have the title in the form of "Title (Date)" and I would like to perform a bulk Search and Replace With Regular Expressions to extract the date and put it in Published Date, but the Published field does not appear in Destination Fields.

Am I missing something or is there a way around this ?
Thanks.

No, there's no way to copy from text to date fields.
