beamerbibliographies
I'm preparing a Beamer presentation that includes (on the final slide) a short bibliography in the Harvard style (agsm). This works fine, but I find the article icons accompanying each reference annoying, especially as they are appearing behind the author name (rather than beside it). Is there a simple way to remove the icons?
\begin{frame}{References}
\bibliographystyle{agsm}
\bibliography{bibliography}{}
\end{frame}
I found this:
\section*{Références}
\begin{multicols}{2}[\frametitle{\insertsection} \usebeamertemplate{frametitle}]
\bibliography{Biblio.bib}
\bibliographystyle{auteurfr}
\end{multicols}
By this way you can have bibliography in two columns on multiple frames. In the first frame, the frametitle beamer template appear with the name of the section.
If you are using natbib for references, then you can use the bibentry package to create references in footnotes. It should be noted that this is a bit of a hack, and it doesn't really implement a proper footnote reference style, but emulates one. To deal with subsequent citations (as you request in the comments) I've created a second command \secondcite which will place a footnote referencing the correct citation's original footnote number without duplicating the bibliography entry itself. Here's an example:
\documentclass{beamer}
\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
@book{Saussure1995,
Author = {Ferdinand de Saussure},
Origyear = {1916},
Publisher = {Payot},
Title = {Cours de Linguistique G{\'e}n{\'e}rale},
Year = {1995}}
@book{Labov1972,
Address = {Philadelphia},
Author = {William Labov},
Publisher = {University of Pennsylvania Press},
Title = {Sociolinguistic Patterns},
Year = {1972}}
\end{filecontents}
\usetheme{Montpellier}
\usepackage{natbib}
\usepackage{bibentry}
\bibliographystyle{apalike}
\usepackage{chngcntr}
\counterwithin*{footnote}{page}
\newcommand\footcite[1]{\footnote{\bibentry{#1}}\label{\thepage:#1}}
\newcommand\secondcite[1]{\textsuperscript{\ref{\thepage:#1}}}
\begin{document}
\nobibliography{\jobname}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Stuff famous linguists asked}
\begin{block}{A block}
\begin{enumerate}
\item Is it part of \emph{langue} or part of \emph{parole}?\footcite{Saussure1995}
\item Is it socially stratified?\footcite{Labov1972}
\item More Saussure\secondcite{Saussure1995}
\end{enumerate}
\end{block}
\end{frame}
% The next frame is a duplicate for testing purposes
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Stuff famous linguists asked}
\begin{block}{A block}
\begin{enumerate}
\item Is it part of \emph{langue} or part of \emph{parole}?\footcite{Saussure1995}
\item Is it socially stratified?\footcite{Labov1972}
\item More Saussure\secondcite{Saussure1995}
\end{enumerate}
\end{block}
\end{frame}
\end{document}
If you want the references to be one big frame, then using [allowframebreaks] is the way to go. I find the standard formatting of references in beamer overly garish, so I subdue everything:
\setbeamercolor*{bibliography entry title}{fg=black}
\setbeamercolor*{bibliography entry author}{fg=black}
\setbeamercolor*{bibliography entry location}{fg=black}
\setbeamercolor*{bibliography entry note}{fg=black}
\setbeamertemplate{bibliography item}{}
I also allow for the "(cont.)" to be used on subsequent slides:
\setbeamertemplate{frametitle continuation}[from second]
The references slide itself is simple.
\begin{frame}[t,allowframebreaks]
\frametitle{References}
\bibliography{<bibfile>}
\end{frame}
\end{document}
