How to change fixed entries (or words) in tables of contents
I am writing my dissertation using a custom version of the book class.
I have spent hours trying change the words "Bibliography" and "Appendices" that are automatically put in to the table of contents by Latex to:
"BIBLIOGRAPHY" and "APPENDICES" (all in UPPER CASES) respectively.
I have tried inserting:
\renewcommand{\bibname}{BIBLIOGRAPHY}
\renewcommand{\appendixname}{APPENDIX}
in the preamble. But that changes only the titles of the bibliography and appendices. Nothing changes for what is put in the table of contents. It still shows "Bibliography" and "Appendices".
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks!

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
