[OS X TeX] Bibtex alias

Hi,
I just started with a new paper in Latex/Texshop and so a well-known discomfort is on its way. I opened bibtex and put in some references in the paper.  Now the problem. It is not possible to use an alias for bst, bib and personal styles: these files require to be put in the (new) folder of the new paper. Otherwise there is no typesetting possible. 

This is uncomfortable because when I want to work on another paper in process, I have to bring the files to the appropriate folder. So, there is a lot of toing and froing if you are working on two or more papers at the same time. Is there a way to have all the relevant files (such as natbib.bst, natbib.sty and personal bib/bst, etc) in one folder and use an alias that can be recognized by TeXshop?

Best regards,

Henk Verkuyl
