Overleaf

Overleaf is a collaborative cloud-based LaTeX and Rich Text collaborative writing, editing, and publishing tool that makes the whole process of writing, editing and publishing scientific documents much quicker and easier.

The University of Michigan provides a site license to Overleaf. Patrons can log in via a portal page or on the main Overleaf website, selecting the SSO option. Need additional assistance regarding access? Contact the ITS Service Center.

Patrons who might use this program tend to be in disciplines that demand the writing and formatting of equations and formulas.

LaTeX

LaTeX is a markup language (sometimes accessed through the Overleaf editor) that is often used in science and engineering documents because it allows for great control in creating complex equations and formulas. There is a community of U-M folks who actively maintain this LaTeX template to keep it in line with Rackham's guidelines.

Pressbooks

Pressbooks is easy-to-use book writing software that lets you create a book in all the formats you need to publish. Michigan Publishing currently supports this product as a do-it-yourself tool. Authors will need to request access to Pressbooks in order to start using it. Please send requests for access to mpublishing@umich.edu.
