Getting Started with LaTeX and Overleaf

Getting Started with LaTeX and Overleaf

LaTeX is a powerful typesetting language often used for writing theses, dissertations, or peer-reviewed journal articles. Unlike a traditional word processor, files are written in a markup language and then run through LaTeX to apply the formatting. This allows authors to focus on document content, not appearance. 

Switch from single- to double-column formatting by changing a toggle. Build your reference section automatically using the citation feature. Typeset beautiful mathematical equations.

This hands-on workshop uses the Overleaf editor to demonstrate the basics of LaTeX. Attendees will work through examples, experiment with common features, and take away a list of additional resources that can be used after the workshop to explore further.

This event will take place in Room 134, Parks Library.
