Behalf Of Vedantham, Anu
We are glad to announce university-wide access
<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.overleaf.com_edu_harvard&d=DwMGaQ&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=GNdigbP8mRT9_Dxe9IJBcQz0zSD935DPlTB34phAUFk&m=wlnowYJdyb4SysvEMFLcT0c-STq8V7eatnWtEvKAk90&s=meOa0cAPPpi_0uVZp4lsLxnUE3oaUCYgclaiJO3Bpzo&e=>
for Overleaf Pro+ which includes ShareLaTeX Premium. Overleaf enables collaborative
real-time writing of articles with equations, graphs and tables. With the appropriate
templates, Overleaf saves substantial time in article preparation, especially with
co-authors from multiple institutions. Overleaf plays well with Zotero
<https://guides.library.harvard.edu/zotero> to manage citations with easy import
<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.overleaf.com_blog_174-2Dimport-2Dyour-2Dbibs-2Dreference-2Dmanagement-2Dtools-2Dnow-2Dlinked-2Dto-2Doverleaf-2Dnumber-2Dbacktoschool&d=DwMGaQ&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=GNdigbP8mRT9_Dxe9IJBcQz0zSD935DPlTB34phAUFk&m=wlnowYJdyb4SysvEMFLcT0c-STq8V7eatnWtEvKAk90&s=w1rjVMwJbGO19_VksVXamPtZAzmwT31HLNEw7KtYXw4&e=>.
Harvard already has over 1,500 Overleaf users. Now all Harvard faculty, students and
staff can have Overleaf Pro accounts connected to their Harvard credentials. Create yours
<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.overleaf.com_edu_harvard&d=DwMGaQ&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=GNdigbP8mRT9_Dxe9IJBcQz0zSD935DPlTB34phAUFk&m=wlnowYJdyb4SysvEMFLcT0c-STq8V7eatnWtEvKAk90&s=meOa0cAPPpi_0uVZp4lsLxnUE3oaUCYgclaiJO3Bpzo&e=>
now!
Beyond the benefit to users, the university-wide access enables insights into Harvard
usage analytics, supports faculty and students to create and disseminate scholarship, and
facilitates course-based projects. A few technical details:
For those already using Overleaf, the Pro+ account increases storage (20 Gb and 1,000
files per project), supports secure project sharing, maintains full project history with
version control, connects to Dropbox, and expands technical assistance.
For those already using ShareLaTex, the Pro+ account includes premium access. Upgrade an
existing account by confirming that the account is associated

We plan to add templates to ease the process of creating dissertations, theses and other
publications. You can recommend your favorite templates at
http://ask.library.harvard.edu
<http://ask.library.harvard.edu/>. We will add workshops on Overleaf and ShareLaTex
on the Library Calendar <http://library.harvard.edu/library-calendar>. Browse the
Overleaf LibGuides

Campus-wide Overleaf access is brought to you by Harvard Library, and builds on the
Harvard Smithsonian CFA Overleaf
