Including additional bibliography (publication list) in thesis

Question

I have seen Multiple bibliographies (cited references + list of publications) and How can I include a bibliography at the end of each part of a book? but could find an answer.

I am writing a thesis where there is an overall bibliography. Plus, I want to make a separate list of my own publications. I tried exactly this: http://memming.isloco.com/ but somehow a bibliography list is not created. Can you please tell, how can I make a separate publication list.

I am using university provided thesis, which includes natbib, so I am not sure if I can use other packages.

Answer 1

I would make a seperate LaTeX document for it, and then just include the resulting bibliography. You second document, let's say myrefs.tex might look like this:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{natbib}
% whatever you need here, basically a good idea is to use your real thesis header
\begin{document}
Hello world!
\nocite{*}
\bibliographystyle{mystyle}
\bibliography{myrefbibfile}
\end{document}

Now you compile this by standard sequence latex+bibtex+latex+latex. In your real thesis you add the following:

\begingroup
\renewcommand\refname{List of my Publications}
\input{myrefs.bbl}
\endgroup

This should add the bibliography from the second document into the first one, and the name of the chapter/section should be List of my Publications.

Answer 2

The easiest way to do so is to use the biblatex package! You can put libraries where you want. You should read the manual!

Example:

\documentclass{scrbook}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[ngerman, english]{babel}
\usepackage[
    style=numeric-comp,
    bibstyle=numeric,
    sorting=none,
    url=false,
    natbib=true,
    backend=biber
]{biblatex} % Load the package with some options.
\addbibresource{/Users/Phil/Documents/Bibliothek/library.bib} % This is your library.

\begin{document}

% Print your own papers.
\begin{refsection}
% If you print a bibliography within this section, only citations within this refsection will be printed.

% Option 1: Make nocite for all of your papers.
% Options 2 would be a seperate file which contains all of your papers.
\nocite{Springer2011}
\defbibnote{myPrenote}{
    Some words before I show you the list of my own papers.
}
\defbibnote{myPostnote}{
    A bunch of papers are still in print and not yet published.
}
\printbibliography[
    heading=bibintoc,
    title={Author's Contributions},
    prenote=myPrenote,
    postnote=myPostnote
]
\end{refsection}

\chapter{First Chapter}
Some Text with reference \cite{Madelung1991}.

\chapter{Second Chapter}
Some more Text with reference \cite{Einstein1905a}.

% Here we print the overall bibliography form the rest of the document.
\printbibliography

\end{document}
