Sometimes we need to rename the bibliography's title in Latex, for example, we want the title to be 'References'.
In the preamble, add "\renewcommand\refname{New Title} " for article type documents and "\renewcommand\bibname{New Title} " for book and report type documents.
Thank you!
ReplyDeletethanks a lot.
ReplyDeleteand how does this work with report type documents?

ReplyDeleteIn order to get this little trick working, I had to place the command after the preamble, and (right) before calling the bibliography.
ReplyDeleteThanks, this sorted me out.
DeleteDitto, it works for me placing the command just right before calling the bibliography.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
Thanks!
DeleteThanks a lot ...
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for the tip!
ReplyDeleteBut to make it work, I had to place it right before the bibliography commands and perform a full compilation (latex, bibtex, latex, latex).
Same here... thanks anyway.
DeleteFixed it. Thanks...

ReplyDeleteand how do you make it appear as {New Title} in the Table of Contents for a report?
ReplyDelete@Anonymous: \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{New Title}
ReplyDeletee.g. with references.bib:
\renewcommand\bibname{New Title}
\bibliography{references}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{New Title}
Thank you!
ReplyDeleteSaved me tons of work, thanks

ReplyDelete[my solution]
ReplyDeletelyx: 2.0.2
doc class: report
cite style: natbib
on your bibliography page, put the cursor just before the 'BibTeX Generated Bibliography' text and press the 'insert TeX code' button (ctrl+l), and paste the below in to the red box:
\renewcommand{\bibname}{References}
when you preview, it will change the title 'Bibliography' to 'References' on that page AND in your table of contents page.
job done.
Thanks man. I was having this problem with the title of a natbib reference and your tip helped me a lot.
DeleteGreat thank you :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, it worked perfectly
ReplyDeleteI had to place it before the bibliography commands too. But it finally worked, thanks a lot!!

ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say that over 6 years later, this post is still useful. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThats great, but how do I add a numbering as a chapter (using thebibliography not bibtex itself)? Any Ideas? I' ve tried so many things...
ReplyDeleteCollectible Teddy Bears are those that were manufactured in 1902. The history of the teddy bear began after a cartoon on the Washington Post showed President Theodore Roosevelt sparing the life of a bear during a hunting excursion. adorable teddy bear names
