Brown University is engaged in a pilot project to investigate how its library can support scholarly communication. As part of the pilot it is using Overleaf as an authoring and submission tool, which will enable researchers to publish articles directly into the institutional repository.

Overleaf has joined the growing list of signatories of the Transparency and Openness Promotion (TOP) Guidelines, put forward by the Center for Open Science and designed to help encourage and support transparency and reproducibility of research.

Overleaf today announced a new publishing partnership with SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics. The partnership provides SPIE authors with easy-to-use, custom LaTeX templates - as well as simple submission links - to the SPIE proceedings or journal of their choice.

Last week we hit an amazing milestone -- the three millionth project was created on Overleaf!

When John and I kicked this all off (as writeLaTeX) just over two and half years ago, we never expected it to grow this fast. Looking at this early screenshot compared to the current editor, it's amazing how little has changed on the surface:

But things have certainly had to scale up on the backend! To celebrate hitting the three million projects mark, and to help give a sense of this scale, we've put together a few other stats about Overleaf we hope you'll find interesting (and maybe a little surprising too!).
