Date field
Description
This field is used to store a single date. Internally EPrints always uses ISO standard notation for dates, it avoids confusion. This is YYYY-MM-DD.
In bibliographies sometimes exact dates of publication (or other events) are not known. EPrints allows you to store month and year values in date fields. YYYY or YYYY-MM.
In the database EPrints actually uses 3 integer fields to store the date, rather than a built in date field. This is because of the need to allow "NULL" in month and day if the date is just "1998".
