Information on printed copies of Ada Reference Manuals and various
related documents is available on the Ada-Europe web-site at URL
<http://www.ada-europe.org/manuals.html>.

You may know that (among others) all successive Ada Reference Manuals have
been published in Springer's LNCS series, most of them on the initiative
of Ada-Europe.  As these LNCS editions are the main source for printed
copies, it seems best to include references to those publications in
your bibliography: that's what most recent papers do.

The above mentioned web-page has the following relevant information
(some URLs no longer work, so I've include corrected ones):

* S. Tucker Taft, Robert A. Duff, Randall L. Brukardt, Erhard Ploedereder,
  Pascal Leroy (Eds.)
  "Ada 2005 Reference Manual: Language and Standard Libraries,

The LNCS publication of the Ada 83 Reference Manual is:

* "The Programming Language Ada. Reference Manual"
  American National Standards Institute, Inc. ANSI/MIL-STD-1815A-1983.
  Approved 17 February 1983
  Lecture Notes in Computer Science , Vol. 155

  ISBN: 978-3-540-12328-6
  <http://www.springer.com/computer/programming/book/978-3-540-12328-6>

There's more available (Rationales, Style Guide, etc.) but I hope the
above already helps.
