Comment (by arwagner):
Other fields come to mind, especially when leaving "only journal
articles". Years ago I did a quite extensive mapping from PICA format (a
library catalogue) to BibTeX which I could contribute upon request. Some
samples:
@BOOK{613652282,
title = {{R}adiowave propagation: physics and applications},
publisher = {Wiley},
year = {2010},
author = {Levis, Curt A. AND Johnson, Joel T. AND Teixeira, Fernando
L.},
pages = {XII, 301 S.},
address = {Hoboken, NJ},
isbn = {9780470542958},
rvk = {ZN 3240 L666},
comment = {Ill., graph. Darst.},
ddc = {621.384/11},
keywords = {ELT, P4, Radio / Radio wave propagation / },
language = {eng},
loc = {TK6565.A6},
timestamp = {2010.11.24},
url = {http://www.gbv.de/dms/ilmenau/toc/613652282.PDF}
}
Notice the fields sisbn (10-digit isbn, comes in handy if one wants to
fetch covers ;) ddc, loc and keywords which can be populated by 082 and
6xx categories. For library materials one might probably also export the
shelfmark (above in the rvk field, a common German system). URL might also
point to a scanned TOC.
Also note that it might be very sensible to escape captials in {}.
Finally, a record generated from arXiv:
@ARTICLE{Aubert-2005a,
author = {Aubert, B. and others},
title = {{S}earch for lepton flavor violation in the decay $\tau \to \mu
\gamma$},
journal = {Physical Review Letters},
year = {2005},
volume = {95},
pages = {041802},
abstract = {A search for the nonconservation of lepton flavor number in
the decay
tau±-->µ±gamma has been performed using 2.07×108 e+e--->tau+tau-
events produced at a center-of-mass energy near 10.58 GeV with the
BABAR detector at the PEP-II storage ring. We find no evidence for
a signal and set an upper limit on the branching ratio of [script
B](tau±-->µ±gamma)<6.8×10-8 at 90% confidence level.},
collaboration = {BABAR},
doi = {10.1103/PhysRevLett.95.041802},
eprint = {hep-ex/0502032},
file = {Aubert_2005ye-eprint.pdf:Aubert_2005ye-eprint.pdf:PDF;hep-
ex0502032.ps.gz:/scratch/arwagner/papers/Flavourviolation/hep-
ex0502032.ps.gz:PDF},
slaccitation = {%%CITATION = HEP-EX 0502032;%%}
}
Note also the fields for eprint, doi and slaccitation. file contains
linkages to locally stored full text files (JabRef syntax).
In case, I could give additional input on the issue :)
