General ⇒ Start Bibliography Numbering AFTER \listoffigures

[cappy]

I am using \bibliographystyle{unsrt} such that my bibliography is numbered in the order that my references are cited in the text.

In many of my figure captions, I've cited the source of the figures. At the beginning of my document I have the \listoffigures command. Since my figure list comes before my 1st chapter, my bibliography starts with my first reference that appears in my Figure list. I want my bibliography numbering to start in chapter 1. How do I suppress the bibliography numbering until I start chapter 1?

Thanks.

A simple solution: while you are writing drafts of your document, put \listoffigures at the end of the tex file or just coment out that line. So, every time you use BibTeX to generate the bibliography (i.e. the bbl file), the references will be in the right order. Once you have finished to add or change references, run BibTeX for the last time. You get the definitive bbl file. Then you can move \listoffigures to its right place. All the subsequent compilations will yield the correct document.

Thanks. That worked.
