If you have set the Copy Local to false then try adding the reference to that DLL using add reference in VS.

Go To Soloution Explorer -> Right Click -> Add Reference ->Browse ->Select the DLL

The other approach will be , installing your DLL to GAC by using GACUtil.exe:
gacutil -i [assemblyPath ]

You can have dlls located on a share somewhere (e.g. /bin/SubDir), set CopyLocal to false and make sure your project's references path (in Properties) includes the shared folder.

You can share your assemblies by installing them into Global Assemble Cache.

You can manually copy them to the bin directory when you deploy it.
