On TeX systems based on kpathsea and texmf, there are defaults which are
quite reasonable. On Debian/Ubuntu, at the very least, you can put your
files under ~/texmf in an appropriate subdirectory. Specifically, bib
files can go in ~/texmf/bibtex/bib and they will automatically be found
by bibtex. Similar directories exist for .bst, .sty and .cls files,
etc.
The actual paths searched by latex et al. are defined by the texmf
configuration, usually found in /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf (again, on Debian
systems; YMMV). This file is worth looking at as it is better
documented than the man pages etc! In any case, that configuration file
defines the default settings for BIBINPUTS, BSTINPUTS and so on.
