How to remove [cited at p. 3,5] in the bibliography

Post by annmucc »

I am using natbib as the bibliography style:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[square, numbers, sort&compress]{natbib}
When I get the bibliography printed out at the end of the document I however get [cited at p. X] at the end of each reference. e.g.
Mary Lynn Ritzenthaler and Diane Vogt-O’Connor. Photographs:archival care and management. Society of American Archivists, Chicago, 2006. [cited at p.9,17]
I don't want that, and would like to remove it. However, I don't know where to remove it from (I am using the memoir class in case that makes any difference). Does anyone have any idea of where it comes from, and where I can remove it from?
Thanks!
Ann

This is the preamble I am using:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt, oneside, a4paper]{memoir}
\pagenumbering{arabic}

\input{style.tex}

\begin{document}

\input{chap1/chap1.tex}

\bibliographystyle{unsrtnat}
{\small\bibliography{PhD}}

\end{document}

Hi Ann,

welcome to the board!

Do you use hyperref? Perhaps you load it in style.tex? Check if the option pagebackref has been given to hyperref resp. hypersetup, in that case remove it.

Thanks Stefan for the welcome (and quick reply).

I didn't have hyperref but in the project (I am using a template for 'doctoral dissertation' that comes with LEd) I found the following code:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{citeref}
\renewcommand{\bibitempages}[1]{\newblock {\scriptsize [\mbox{cited at p.\ }#1]}}
Don't know how I missed it! It seems like what I had to do is to remove {\newblock {\scriptsize [\mbox{cited at p.\ }#1]}}.

I am writing this in case anyone else comes across the same problem.

Still not sure what the rest of this command is doing, but when I remove it compiling fails (I am learning how to use LaTeX on my own, so apologies for any stupid questions/comments!). As long as things work I am not that worried (at the moment)

Perhaps remove that complete renewcommand line or change it to

Code: Select all

\renewcommand{\bibitempages}[1]{}

If I remove the complete renewcommand line I get the page number in brackets after the reference. Adding {} after [1] or removing :

Code: Select all

{\newblock {\scriptsize [\mbox{cited at p.\ }#1]}}
completely seem to do the same thing i.e. what I want it to do. I added {} now since I guess that's the correct way of doing it if you suggested it :)
i.e. in summary, the code is now:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{citeref}
\renewcommand{\bibitempages}[1]{}
Thanks for all your help!

Ann
