One option is to manage metadata in org-mode itself, relying on
org-attach to store and preserve links to the pdf files. Bibtex source
blocks can used to store bibliographical data for each pdf.
I find the combination of emacs-w3m, google scholar, and org-mode to be
an easier and more transparent way to manage bibtex data than an
indirect route via Zotero or Mendeley. But I also prefer to edit all my
bibtex data by hand. :)
Recoll is great for indexing. I have a mess of spaghetti code I use to
pull recoll results into a temporary org outline. I can then open the
relevant files using org links. I'd be happy to share it if anyone is
interested.
Best,
Matt
