Overleaf Professional

An online LaTeX edit, Overleaf provides templates for many prestigious journals, and eases the process of collaborative writing.


To get access to Overleaf Professional, you will need to create an account using your Harvard email address.  It is highly recommended to add a secondary email address for several reasons.

  • Invite more collaborators
  • More compile time
  • Real-time track changes
  • Full document history and versioning
  • Advanced reference search

  • Dropbox synchronization
  • Git and GitHub integration

How do I integrate related resources into Overleaf?

  • Log in to Overleaf  
    • Click on Account (top right)
      • Click on Account Settings
        • Here you can link to Dropbox, GitHub Sync, Git Integration, Mendeley, Zotero, ORCID, and more.

What happens if I leave Harvard?  You will not lose access to any projects you own, but you revert back to a free account and will lose some of the premium features. Be sure to include a secondary email address so you don't lose projects when your Harvard email becomes inactive.
