One piece of information you could see though is the relative path (relative to
the .bib file). You could use templating and/or AppleScript to see it. For
instance the following AppleScript shows the relative paths for the selected
publications:
tell application "BibDesk"
tell front document
templated text using text "<$publications><$localFiles><$relativePath/>
</$localFiles></$publications>" for (get selection)
end tell
end tell
