<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label minitoc</title>
</head><body>
<h3>Table of contents, etc., per chapter</h3>
<p/>The common style, of a &ldquo;small&rdquo; table of contents for each part,
chapter, or even section, is supported by the <i>minitoc</i>
package.  The package also supports mini-lists of tables and figures;
but, as the documentation observes, mini-bibliographies are a
different problem &mdash; see
<a href="FAQ-chapbib.html">bibliographies per chapter</a>.
<p/>The package&rsquo;s basic scheme is to generate a little <code>.aux</code> file for
each chapter, and to process that within the chapter.  Simple usage
would be:
<blockquote>
<pre>
\usepackage{minitoc}
...
\begin{document}
...
\dominitoc \tableofcontents
\dominilof \listoffigures
...
\chapter{blah blah}
\minitoc \mtcskip \minilof
...
</pre>
</blockquote><p>
though a lot of elaborations are possible (for example, you don&rsquo;t need
a <code>\</code><code>minitoc</code> for every chapter).
<p/><i>Babel</i> doesn&rsquo;t know about <i>minitoc</i>, but
<i>minitoc</i> makes provision for other document languages than
English &mdash; a wide variety is available.  Fortunately, the current
version of the <i>hyperref</i> package does know about
<i>minitoc</i> and treats <code>\</code><code>minitoc</code> tables in the
same way as &ldquo;real&rdquo; tables of contents.
