Dear Thomas, Aditya, Taco, I am trying to produce a book-list for class using Taco's bib module. I would like to produce a separate list for each lecture / topic: Title of Lecture paragraph giving a synopsis of topic list of books/articles and this repeated for x number of lectures. I discovered a thread in the ConTeXt users mailing list for September last for something like this. Has there been a solution? If it would do what I want I would be grateful for a sample or instructions. I am using the latest bib module. Thanks, Charlie Doherty

Yes, this is possible. Just make every lecture its own section, refer to the titles you want included in every list with \nocite commands at the beginning of every section, have the list typeset with \placepublications[criterium=cite]. If you want continuous numbering for all your lists, add [option=continue]. HTH Thomas

Thank you Thomas, It works perfectly. I had not used the \section command. Along with BibDesk this is great. Thanks for your fast reply. Charlie

That's very helpful. I was going to ask the same question in a month
or so when I might arrange the references in my math textbook that
way. Here's an example file that I'll wikify if a similar example
isn't there already and no one finds problems with it.
Note in passing: \placepublications[criterium=section] and
\placepublications[criterium=cite] should (and do) give the same
results in the further-reading section.
Taco,
For a rainy day, what about \setuppublications[option=continue]
that implicitly appends option=continue to all but the first
\placepublications commands? (If it does so for the first one
then the numbering starts from 37 or thereabouts, as I found out by
trying it.)

Sure, wouldn't be very hard. I hope I don't forget Taco
