How to include notes in the bibliography?

Questions
1

In Latex I heavily used note: {...} to create bib entries that comply with my supervisor’s specifications.

Here a couple of examples:

@book{iso27000,
    author    = "International Organization for Standardization (ISO)",
    title     = "ISO/IEC 27000:2018: Information technology - Security techniques - Information security management systems - Overview and vocabulary",
    publisher = "International Organization for Standardization (ISO)",
    year      = "2018",
    note      = "ICS: 01.040.35; 35.030"
}

@article{isms_future,
    author      = "Edward Humphreys",
    title       = "The Future Landscape of ISMS Standards",
    journal     = "Datenschutz und Datensicherheit - DuD",
    year        = "2018",
    note        = "Bd. 42, DOI: 10.1007/s11623-018-0971-8"
}

@book{isms_scope,
    author    = "Edward Humphreys",
    title     = "Implementing the ISO/IEC 27001 ISMS Standard",
    publisher = "Artech House",
    year      = "2016",
    note      = "ISBN: 978-1-60807-930-8"
}

@book{bsig,
    author    = "Bundesrepublik Deutschland",
    title     = "Gesetz über das Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik (BSI-Gesetz - BSIG)",
    publisher = "Bundesanzeiger Verlag",
    year      = "2009",
    note      = "Stand: 23.06.2021"
}

@book{befragung_lf,
    author    = "Sebastian Arning and Benedikt Küttel",
    title     = "Leitfaden für die Planung, Durchführung und Auswertung einer standardisierten Befragung",
    publisher = "Landkreis Uelzen",
    year      = "2017",
    note      = {[Online]. Verfügbar: \url{https://www.transferagentur-niedersachsen.de/fileadmin/user_upload/Leitfaden_fuer_die_Planung__Durchfuehrung_und_Auswertung_einer_standardisierten_Befragung__Sebastian_Arning_und_Benedikt_Kuettel_.pdf}. Zugriff: 15.08.2024}
}

Unfortunately those notes aren’t shown in the bibliography (IEEE citation style if that matters). How can I include them?

I don’t know how exactly bibliography libraries talk to each other in Typst, but I think the reason is that note (and some other) field is currently ignored:

A workaround is to use another field until the needed is supported.

I want to mention that in some of your example cases, you don’t necessarily need the note field at all, as other more specific fields exist:

  • Volume and DOI keys:

    note = "Bd. 42, DOI: 10.1007/s11623-018-0971-8"
-> volume = "42", doi = "10.1007/s11623-018-0971-8"

  • ISBN key (unfortunately not used in the default IEEE citation style)

    note = "ISBN: 978-1-60807-930-8"
-> isbn = "978-1-60807-930-8"

  • URL and access date keys:

    note = {[Online]. Verfügbar: \url{...}. Zugriff: 15.08.2024}
-> url = "https://...", urldate = "2024-08-15"

Of course, this doesn’t handle all your cases, but it’s at least something.

Also, the default citation style (IEEE) doesn’t handle notes and annotations at all, so you would need to either chose a different style that does, or edit the CSL file manually to add support for those fields.
