I've used org-mode about a year and a half, and I don't think it's the best
application for what you describe. There are several packages available to
do this; the one I've used most often and successfully is Zotero
(zotero.org). This is a browswer plug-in which implements a very nice
database for your papers. At this point, I've indexed 1092 papers (PDFs,
web pages and other materials). In some cases, I have multiple files
attached to each of them.
If you happen to have a Mac, the application DEVONthink Pro is simply
wonderful for organizing collections like this. I have about 7k PDFs in a
financial database, and it's always easy to find what I'm looking for.

I work in Org mode and LaTeX. Ebib is integrated with both of them.
I follow an Org mode link or a LaTeX citation to the BibTeX entry in
Ebib, then open the pdf from Ebib using a link stored in the BibTeX
file. I think Ebib is a splendid tool in this situation.
