How to include notes in the bibliography?

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.
