Engineering Library Workshops: Introduction to LaTeX

Get ahead on your research skills and enjoy coffee and donuts! These workshops are designed for graduate students and faculty but also open to undergraduates. 

LaTeX not only creates professional-looking documents but also allows you to tackle the more complicated parts of typesetting, such as inputting mathematics, creating tables of contents, referencing and creating bibliographies. Instead of downloading, installing and trouble-shooting LaTeX software and packages locally in your computer, you can take advantage of the online LaTeX editor called Overleaf. In this workshop, we will use Overleaf and cover LaTeX basics, bibliographic management in LaTeX and collaboration with others on a LaTeX document. Presented by Marina Zhang, engineering and informatics librarian, Lichtenberger Engineering Library. Before the workshop, sign up for Overleaf free account and copy the template and slides.
