+<gslib:collectionMeta> can retrieve metadata elements from the collection (as opposed to from documents). Here we use it to retrieve "numDocs" metadata - the number of documents in the colleciton.
 The buildDate metadata element is a timestamp, so is not user friendly. We can use one of our utility functions to format it.
