BibDesk is a graphical BibTeX-bibliography manager for Mac OS X. BibDesk is designed to help organize and use bibliographic databases in BibTeX .bib format. In addition to manual typing, BibDesk lets you drag & drop or cut & paste .bib files into the bibliographic database and automatically opens files downloaded from PubMed. BibDesk also keeps track of electronic copies of literature on your computer and allows for searching your database through several keys.

This is plain perfection. I had been using BibDesk for some time before I realize how powerful it is. Now all my bibliography is lying within it with the PDFs and everything organized to perfection. I have tried many bibliography managers, this one is the best one native for Mac OS X.

Outstanding, and constantly getting better. I don't use BibTex at all, but I use BibDesk constantly for indexing and managing bibliographic references.

BibDesk supports Unicode just fine (at least the current version does). It read my UTF-8 encoded .bib file, written on a FreeBSD (therefore not using Mac's line endings but UNIX's), without any problem.

I've tried lots of other bibliographer managers for Mac and nothing quite compares to this. For a research project I am currently working on I am using EndNote (I need to churn out documents in MS Word), but really all of my notes, links to documents, etc. were stored using this amazing app. Perhaps if the humanities world became a little more TeX-friendly... But I can only dream...
