I have been enlightened. This closes a loop for my handling of literature.
Thank you both.

Is it possible to use org babel to extract bibtex entries from file of notes
to a *.bib file?
The stumbling point for me in saving bibtex sources is I don't see a way to
use the file as a bibtex *.bib file so as to use that as the direct source
for the publication. Perhaps this could be automated

yes. there is a @comment command, but bibtex ignores everything that's not
inside an @, @string or @preamble command
I just use refmode to insert bib citations into my org-files. Both
Zotero and Mendeley can export bibtex files, so that's one method of
semi-automating the process (Mendeley will automatically update the
file for you - not sure about Zotero).

It's in my mind to find a way to use orgmode for organizing pdfs and BibTex

haven't found a solution to organizing it all through orgmode.
An important piece of the puzzle, though, needs mention: cb2bib helps
semi-automate mak
