Multiple bibliographies using BibTeX and thebibliography?












0















I'm wondering if it is possible to have multiple bibliography without me needed to update a references.bib file.



I have a main references.bib that contains most of my references, however, since I am combining multiple older latex files together that contain thebibliography environments.



begin{thebibliography}{9}

bibitem{lamport94}
Leslie Lamport,
textit{LaTeX: a document preparation system},
Addison Wesley, Massachusetts,
2nd edition,
1994.

end{thebibliography}


I think in the future i will be more consistent in the way I make citations, but I am wondering if there is a way to make both thebibliography and separate bib files work together, or at bare minimum convert thebibliography to valid BibTeX references.

  • You can just input the old thebibliography environments in addition to using bibliography{references}

  • In theory you can have both bibliography{...} and a thebibliography environment in your document. But by default the numbering in both will start at 1 and it is not easily possible to sort the two to combine into one big bibliography.

  • Thec regular BibTeX procedure produces an thebibliography environment in the bbl file. In your case I would use it and consolidate all the thebibliography into a single one by an easy copy paste in the editor, assuming that there are not to much double that must be fixed by hand. Or if you want to keep them separate, have a look to the multibib package.
