Hi again,
I’m replying to myself, as I think I’ve found a possible solution
to my
problem.
Most publications have some kind of unique ID that can be present
in
BibTeX: a DOI number, a ISBN, a preprint ID, or an URL. One could
use
one these fields as an org-id unique ID for the publication’s
org-mode-entry. (If several such fields are present, priorities
could
be used to choose one.) Then, org-id can be used to find article
entries by unique ID.
This way, even if a reference has been added to a project-specific
.bib-file by a collaborator (with some label of his choice), it
should
be possible to find the relevant org-mode-entry if the paper is
already
anywhere in the library. In the worst case, a missing DOI id will
have
to be added to the .bib-file-entry.
The org entry on the article would contain links and notes. The
BibTeX
data could be kept in a :BIBTEX: drawer.
Any comments?
Christoph
