cite an author without generating the bibliography at the end of the document

Question

I would like to ask about the inverse of this Question if you please.

In other words: Using BibTeX, how to cite references in the context (showing author's name) without having the bibliography at the end the document?

For example

\documentclass{beamer}
\begin{document}
text ..........

text...... \cite{patygore}

\bibliographystyle{plainnat}
\bibliography{biblio}
\end{document}

Answer 1

You can use the method described in Remove frame from presentation. The following code generates a single frame that looks like this:

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{natbib}
\begin{document}

\begin{frame}
\cite{article-full}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}<presentation:0>
\bibliographystyle{plainnat}
\bibliography{xampl}
\end{frame}

\end{document}

Other alternative

If switching to biblatex (What to do to switch to biblatex?) is an option this is certainly easy, just leave out the \printbibliography statement.

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage[style=authoryear]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{biblatex-examples.bib}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}
\textcite{aksin} \parencite{angenendt}
\end{frame} 
\end{document}
