I'm writing my thesis with the Springer's package SVmono. The followings are the options for the bibliography:

\documentclass[envcountsame,envcountchap,oribibl]{svmono} 
\usepackage[font={small,it}]{caption}
\usepackage[nottoc]{tocbibind}

\begin{document}

\begin{small}
\nocite{*}
\bibliographystyle{alpha2}
\bibliography{bibliothesis}
\end{small}

\end{document}

Where the style alpha2 is a modified version of the style alpha and allows to add personal labels to the references. I obtained it thanks to the accepted answer of this question.

Now the problem:

The title of the bibliography chapter appears as "References" but the chapter header is "REFERENCES" (with uppercase letters). I'd like to have the headers with lowercase letters.

note: The bibliography is longer than a page.

  • I get “References” both as the chapter header and in the TOC. – egreg Dec 27 '14 at 16:11
  • To be more precise: In my document only in "the title of the chapter" and in the TOC I have "References". The headers are "REFERENCES" – Dubious Dec 27 '14 at 16:15

You should be using neither caption nor tocbibind with svmono. The second is responsible for the uppercasing, by the way.

If you use natbib, the references chapter is added to the table of contents; not if that package is not loaded (and you don't want it, if you need an alpha style). You're using the oribibl option just for this, I think.

Here's a fix:

\documentclass[envcountsame,envcountchap,oribibl]{svmono}

\usepackage{etoolbox}

\patchcmd{\thebibliography}
  {\list}
  {\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{\refname}\list}
  {}{}

\begin{document}
\tableofcontents

\chapter{Test}

Text for test.

\begin{small}
\nocite{*}
\bibliographystyle{alpha}
\bibliography{SM}
\end{small}

\cleardoublepage

Test to show the page header

\end{document}
