Sort a Bibliography by Year

Post by frodojedi »

Hi,

I want to sort my list of references by year (ascending order). I just use the simple basic commands:

Code: Select all

\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{my_bibliography}
Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance
Cheers

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

I recall there is a plainyr or some such that does this. Someone also wrote a plainyr-rev style that numbers them in reverse order by year (for publication lists and the like).
