That's the book for svn 1.0. :) Try this instead:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.advanced.externals.html
There isn't a 1.6 version of the book yet, at least as far as I know.

If you set the externals on /papers/paper to "^/bib bib", it won't work
because /papers/paper/bib already exists. (You may be able to set and
commit the property, but updates will fail.) It's fine to set the
externals on /papers/paper/bib, because /papers/paper/bib/bib doesn't exist.
I'm assuming your trunk looks like this:
/bib
/bib/all.bib
/papers
/papers/paper
/papers/paper/bib
/papers/paper/bib/vision.bib
There's no way to get vision.bib and all.bib in the same directory using
folder externals; that's what file externals are for. And I may well be
wrong about ^ not working with file externals. After looking at the
release notes for 1.6, I think I was mis-remembering this comment:
"The file external's URL must be in the same repository as the URL that
the file external will be inserted into; inter-repository file externals
are not supported."
So I'd suggest trying it and seeing what happens. :)
If you do go with folder externals, you can either set the externals on
/papers/paper to "^/bib bib_shared", and a WC of /papers/paper will look
like this:
bib
bib/vision.bib
bib_shared
bib_shared/all.bib
Or you can set it on /papers/paper/bib and get this:
bib
bib/vision.bib
bib/bib_shared
bib/bib_shared/all.bib
