 * Hello
 * First of all, thanks for a great and very useful plugin. 🙂
 * I am building a list of links to various media reports for my blog. The link 
   date field I am “misusing” for the publication date of the media report (as opposed
   to the publication date of the link im my blog). The date is displayed together
   with the time, which makes no sense in my case. Is there a way to disable the
   time, short of modifying the code (which would be overwritten when updating the
   plugin)?
 * Thanks for any ideas or direction you can give.

 * You can format the way Link Library displays dates using the field Link Date 
   Format under the General Options section of Link Library configuration. The field
   follows standard WordPress formatting rules and you can follow the help link 
   for more information.
 * If you just want to remove the time, set the Link Date Format to F j, Y.
 * Please let me know if this answers the question and consider donating to support
   this plugin’s development.
