Very easy and I do this actually. All you have to do is after you latex the file once, drop the .aux file on top of your master file that is opened in bibdesk. Bibdesk will select all the matching entries. Now copy these, open a new bibtex file from Bibdesk and paste what you copied into that file. Now save the file in the directory where you keep the file. That is now the file you share with collaborators.

I have tried to search for this information but could not find it, so feel free to redirect me to the documentation, or other discussions. It seems so basic to me that I'm almost sure it's been discussed plenty of times before. I plan to build a master file, a large collection of entries, that I will keep in order, with many pdfs, sublists, etc. This master file will live in a Dropbox folder. However, when I'm writing a paper, I only need some of these references, and the corresponding .bib file lives next to the .tex sources. It's a local file. I will most likely share this file with collaborators, and clearly I don't want to expose my master file. How do you typically work in this setup? Do you keep the master and the local file open, and drag references from one to the other? There's something smarter to do? Am I missing something?
