I am facing a problem when using natbib together with multibib and label prefixes. I want to define two bibliographies: One for literature of other people, with numbered references, and one for my own literature, also with numbered references, but with a prefix "O" before each reference (the multibib labeled option). Without natbib (only using multibib), it works fine. But together with natbib, the "O" prefix vanishes in the text. In the bibliography, it is still there. I need to use natbib because the sort&compress feature.
Working minimal example:
\documentclass{scrbook}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{main.bib}
@ARTICLE{travis,
author = {Brehm, M. and Kirchner, B.},
title = {TRAVIS - A free Analyzer and Visualizer for Monte Carlo and Molecular
Dynamics Trajectories},
journal = {J. Chem. Inf. Model.},
year = {2011},
volume = {51 (8)},
pages = {2007-2023},
owner = {Brehministrator},
timestamp = {2011.11.27}
},
@ARTICLE{welton2001,
author = {L. Cammarata and S. G. Kazarian and P. A. Salter and T. Welton},
title = {Molecular states of water in room temperature ionic liquids},
journal = {Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys.},
year = {2001},
volume = {3},
pages = {5192-5200},
owner = {Brehministrator},
timestamp = {2011.12.11}
}
}
\end{filecontents}
\usepackage[square, sort&compress, super, comma]{natbib}
\usepackage[labeled,resetlabels]{multibib}
\newcites{O}{Own Publications}
\begin{document}
\chapter{Introduction}
Citing my own literature\citeO{travis}.
Citing other people's literature\cite{welton2001}.
\appendix
\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliographystyleO{plain}
\bibliography{main}
\bibliographyO{main}
\end{document}
To compile this, you need to run bibtex separately on "main" and on "O".

Here is a way to achieve your result. (I had duplicated your references to check whether the sorting and compression works.)
You have to keep in mind that the
natbibpackage should be commented till you generateO.bbland<filename>.bbl. That is to load thenatbibpackage once you generate thebblfiles usingbibtex. Otherwise, the\citationentries will only write to<filename>.auxand theO.bblwill generate with no\bibitem{...}. This will be kept in your mind in later stage when you edit yourmain.bibfile.The macros which are defined between
\makeatletterand\makeatotherare taken fromnatbibpackage.The output will look like:
