I don't know about your second question, but thought that the following
Greenstone tutorial page may help with the first, at least with the
display of the dates:
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/gsdoc/tutorial/en/scanned_image_collection.htm

To confirm whether it is indeed relevant to your situation, you may want
to first read steps 11 and 12 on that page.

Anupama
