  • +1 for eprint, that's as much of a standard as I've ever seen. If the AMS styles don't use it, then that's an AMS-specific issue. You can modify the Bibtex style to include the eprint field if it's important to you. Commented Oct 6, 2010 at 22:36

    Neither eprint nor url are standard fields in the current BibTeX. You can't hardly fault a style for not implementing a non-standard field. (Though I thought I heard a rumour here that the next version of BibTeX will have proper support of electronic documents.) Commented Oct 6, 2010 at 23:02
  • Just a comment on David Zaskavsky's comment: There is a lovely little script called urlbst that adds support for the eprint and url fields (and various other kinds of web link e.g. DOI's and PubMed) to an existing bst file. It works fine on the AMS styles. Commented Oct 7, 2010 at 11:14
