Document Classes ⇒ 'Bibliography' instead of 'References' in documentclass

[cunyr]

Hi everybody,

as you know, in the document class 'report' the title of the bibliography will actually be 'Bibliography' while in document class article, it will be 'References' Does anybody know, how i can get the title of the Bibliography to be 'Reference' while using the report document class? How can i change settings in a document class.

Thanx in advance for your help.

Renaming the bibliography depends on whether you are using babel or not. Wihtout babela simple

Code: Select all

\renewcommand{\bibname}{References}

will do the trick. With babel it depends again on the language option. Assumed that you set english as language option, it will look like

Code: Select all

\usepackage[english]{babel}
\addto{\captionsenglish}{%
  \renewcommand{\bibname}{References}
}

to change that. Have a look at the documentation of babel to learn more about its language options.


Best regards and welcome to the board
