How to omit bibliography from TOC?

Post by nomar »

I am looking for a way to suppress a bibliography from showing up in my TOC. For example, if you want to suppress a section from appearing in the TOC you can do the following:
\section*{sect not in TOC}
\section{sect in TOC}
This strategy does not work in the bib case such that:

\begin{thebibliography}{00}

\bibitem{item 1}
info 1
\bibitem{item 2}
info 2
.
.
\end{thebibliography}

shows up as: LIST OF REFERENCES in the TOC and if I add the asterix in : \begin*{thebibliography}{00}
returns errors.
Essentially, I am trying to splice an article that has a bib into my document that already has it's own bib. Merging the two docs without merging the bib files will allow me to preserve the layout and this is what I am after.

Thanks!

This is not the usual behaviour. Build a minimal working example (MWE) that shows this. If you are using a non-standard document class, attach it to your next post or give a link where to find it.
