Page Layout ⇒ Avoiding Page Break for Bibliography

[mattkizerian]

Does anyone know how to stop LaTeX from inserting a page break before the Bibliography section? I've got a small bibliography in a short document, and I'd rather not have the extra page if possible.

Hi Matt,

that depends on which document class you are using. In the case of the article class there's no page break before the bibliography.

Which class do you use? Perhaps you're using a document class designed for bigger documents, that would generate a pagebreak there.

I'm using KOMA script, specifically scrreprt. I didn't think to check the KOMA documentation to see if there was an option for that. Anyone know offhand?

Hi Matt,

KOMA-Script is a very good choice. But why don't you use scrartcl instead of scrreprt? Do you need chapters for small documents? The bibliography will also start a new chapter and therefore also a new page, it's using \chapter, \chapter* or \addchap depending on the options.

You could redefine the internal macro \bib@heading to use something else instead of a chapter macro. But at first you should be sure about the choice of the class ... do you are?

The option bibliography=leveldown when loading the documentclass worked for me.
