Global research collaboration platform and academic database Mendeley and WriteLaTeX have collaborated to make it easier for authors to 'cite as they write' by linking their Mendeley reference library to WriteLaTeX's online collaborative writing and publishing service.
WriteLaTeX is fast becoming the leading provider of tools for writing scholarly papers in an online collaborative academic world. With over two million scientific papers published every year, and with most of the world's biggest technical and medical innovations beginning with a scientific paper, there is an ever-growing demand for efficient and effective ways to create and collaborate on scientific papers.
Authors who have built up extensive virtual libraries using Mendeley's reference management software can now use this library more effectively when authoring their scientific and scholarly works on WriteLaTeX.
With over 1.5 million projects created to date by authors in over 180 countries worldwide, WriteLaTeX's flagship product 'Overleaf' makes the power of professional typesetting immediately accessible to scientists and technical writers at all stages of their career.
Mendeley is a global collaborative research platform with over 3 million users worldwide. It offers a suite of cloud-based tools which help scholars to discover content, organise their papers, manage citations and connect with other researchers around the world. Mendeley's API and dedicated developer portal also supports hundreds of third-party applications, like WriteLaTeX, that make science more social and open.
