I am using multibbl package to create separated bibliographies for my CV (e.g., to separate journal and conference publications). It works really well, however it resets the bibliography item numbers for each bibliography.

For example, if I use:

\newbibliography{journal}
\bibliographystyle{journal}{../bib/plainyr-rev}
\nocite{journal}{*}
\bibliography{journal}{../bib/journal}{\large \textsc{Refereed Journal Articles}}

and use

\newbibliography{conference}
\bibliographystyle{journal}{../bib/plainyr-rev}
\nocite{conference}{*}
\bibliography{conference}{../bib/conference}{\large \textsc{Refereed Conference Publications}}

then I get an output similar to the following:

Refereed Journal Articles

[1] Author name. Title. Some Journal, 2013.

Refereed Conference Publications

[1] Author name. Title. In Some conference, address, 2013.

Instead what I really want (wish) is that the numbering resumes from where it left, something along the lines...

Refereed Journal Articles

[1] Author name. Title. Some Journal, 2013.

Refereed Conference Publications

[2] Author name. Title. In Some conference, address, 2013.

Is this possible? Thanks,

Edit: Working example

Content for example.tex

\documentclass[12pt]{article}

\usepackage{multibbl}

\begin{document}

\newbibliography{journal}
\bibliographystyle{journal}{plain}
\nocite{journal}{*}
\bibliography{journal}{journal}
{\large \textsc{Refereed Journal Articles}}

\newbibliography{conference}
\nocite{conference}{*}
\bibliographystyle{conference}{plain}
\bibliography{conference}{conference}
{\large \textsc{Refereed Conference Publications}}

\end{document}

content for journal.bib

@article{entry2,
    author = {Author name},
    journal = {Some Journal},
    title = {Title},
    year = {2013},
}

content for conference.bib

@inproceedings{entry1,
    author = {Author name},
    address = {address},
    booktitle = {Some conference},
    title = {Title},
    year = {2013},
}

Just invoke:

pdflatex.exe example.tex
bibtex.exe conference
bibtex.exe journal
pdflatex.exe example.tex

to get the undesired output :)

  • How are you loading the package? Is it like \usepackage[resetlabels]{multibib}? If so, get rid of resetlabels. Also, welcome to TeX.SX! – Adam Liter Feb 17 '14 at 03:11

    Also, making your code a complete minimal working example (MWE) (i.e., complete it with \documentclass{...}, the required \usepackage's, \begin{document}, and \end{document}) will mean that you get better help quicker on this site. – Adam Liter Feb 17 '14 at 03:12
  • Ah, sorry, I thought you were using multibib, not multibbl. The default behavior in multibib is continuous numbering. I'm not familiar with multibbl, so someone else will have to help. – Adam Liter Feb 17 '14 at 03:18

    @Adam: Yes, I am using multibbl. If transition to multibib is seamless, I might try that. Is it similar?

    Also, updated the example with MWE.

  • This compares the two packages; hope that helps. – Adam Liter Feb 17 '14 at 04:45
  • @Adam: Worked beautifully. The transition was quite painless, too. Just a quick follow-up. Is there a way to indent the numbering created for the different bibliographies. For example, one of my bibliographies have more than 10 elements, so multibib indents it automatically. However, this makes the indenting of the previous bibliography (which starts and ends before '10') inconsistent. – kivancmuslu Feb 17 '14 at 05:52

    Glad to hear it! You may wish to consider answering your own question, then, with an MWE that shows your approach with multibib. Perhaps someone will also provide an answer that uses multibbl. In any event, I imagine that having both answers to the question might be helpful to future visitors on this site. – Adam Liter Feb 17 '14 at 05:55
  • Very good idea, I am on it :) I was searching a way to give you +rep, but I guess I cannot do that for comments. – kivancmuslu Feb 17 '14 at 07:23
  • By the way, turns out that due to my reputation, I cannot answer my own question before 8 hours pass. I will update it tomorrow (if the system permits). – kivancmuslu Feb 17 '14 at 07:32
  • The system should permit it. – Adam Liter Feb 17 '14 at 07:35

Thanks to Adam, I managed to use multibib, which does what I was looking for by default.

Here is the updated MWE that lists the publications in resumed numbering:

\documentclass[12pt]{article}

\usepackage{multibib}

\newcites{journal,conference}{Refereed Journal Articles, Refereed Conference Publications}

\begin{document}

\bibliographystylejournal{plain}
\nocitejournal{*}
\bibliographyjournal{journal}

\bibliographystyleconference{plain}
\nociteconference{*}
\bibliographyconference{conference}

\end{document}

The example uses the same .bib files in the original post and produces the following result (as expected):

Refereed Journal Articles

[1] Author name. Title. Some Journal, 2013.

Refereed Conference Publications

[2] Author name. Title. In Some conference, address, 2013.
