I would like to automatize the handling of my bibliographical references once for all, and to achieve this, I would like to use bibtex. I am aware of the existence of various bst files, for various styles of bibliographies: numerical labels, alphanumerical labels etc, but I would like to mix them, and to keep certain bibliographical references always in the same order, and always on the top of my references lists. But I don't know how to do it. I would like the output to look like the bibliography produced by the following LaTeX source code:

\begin{thebibliography}{100}
\addtolength{\leftmargin}{0.2in} % sets up alignment with the following line.
\setlength{\itemindent}{-0.2in}
\bibitem[EGA]{EGA} {\sc A. Grothendieck} et {\sc J. Dieudonn\'e}, \emph{\'El\'ements de g\'eom\'etrie alg\'ebrique, (Publ. Math. I.H.E.S.}, tomes $4$, $8$, $11$, $17$, $20$, $24$, $28$, $32$, $1960$-$1967$).

\bibitem[EGA IV.3]{EGA43} {\sc A. Grothendieck} et {\sc J. Dieudonn\'e}, \emph{\'El\'ements de g\'eom\'etrie alg\'ebrique, IV.3. \'Etude locale des sch\'emas et des morphismes de sch\'emas (Troisi\`eme partie), (Publ. Math. I.H.E.S.}, tome $28$, $1966$).

\bibitem[1]{1}{Some less important reference}
\end{thebibliography}

whose output looks like this :

enter image description here

The group of "EGA" references (that is, all references except the last one) is the list of references that I want to keep in this order (labels appear to be already sorted in alphabetical order, but it could not be the case) and always on top of my bibliography.

    Right now, your whole bibliography is set up by hand, not by having a database around and let a package make the work. biblatex is the newest guy in town, and does everything all the multiple bib-specific packages can do with (almost) the blink of an eye. You can define specific rules for sorting and give additional presort or sorttitle fields if you want something special. – Johannes_B Mar 10 '15 at 22:14
  • The sorting is easily achieved via biblatex, but since all the 'example' entries you give are identical in form, it is not very helpful for providing advice about what style to use (and whether it needs a little or a lot of tweaking). – jon Mar 10 '15 at 22:21
  • @jon As I wrote : "the group of "EGA" references (that is, all references except the last one) is the list of references that I want to keep in this order (labels appear to be already sorted in alphabetical order, but it could not be the case) and always on top of my bibliography" – Olórin Mar 10 '15 at 22:26
  • @Johannes_B Could you pls point to an example in biblatex achieving this ? Thx – Olórin Mar 10 '15 at 22:27
  • Take a look at the biblatex documentation, § 3.6.7, ‘Bibliography categories’,p. 79 and § 3.11.4, ‘Subdivided bibliographies’, p.109–111. – Bernard Mar 10 '15 at 23:41
  • Indeed: the placement and labels are the easy parts of constructing a bibliography style in biblatex: it's the actual formatting of the output of (all) the entry types that is tricky. With only one entry type shown, this question is impossible to answer properly. – jon Mar 11 '15 at 00:15

    Off-topic: \sc was deprecated when LaTeX 2.09 retired to a well-deserved home for elderly formats 20+ years ago. \scshape or \textsc{} should be used for all LaTeX 2e documents. – cfr Mar 11 '15 at 02:34
