Well, sometimes... I often get articles from the arxiv, which do not
have metadata, but the contents coincides with the "published" version,
so I can then use the metadata from mathscinet even if my library does
not have access.
However, I just found zotero + zotfile, which is a firefox plugin and
does what I need. Although I love emacs, it's probably better to stick
to something which is well-maintained.
Best,
Martin
