Overleaf, a collaborative writing and publishing platform that makes the process of writing, editing and publishing academic papers quicker and easier, has released a report which takes an in-depth look at active collaborative research patterns. Rather than examining post-published collaboration patterns, ‘The Connected Culture of Collaboration’ explores new, real-time information on collaboration to provide insights in collaboration patterns on national, state and institution-level scales.
Supported and contributed to by parent company Digital Science, the report features a number of thought leadership contributions and includes a foreword from Laurel Haak, Executive Director, ORCID. The report focuses on the varying aspects of collaboration: how collaboration is valued in science, the role of university libraries in research communication, and how the growth of open access facilitates collaboration.
An analysis of Overleaf collaboration data forms the heart of the study.
The report is available online at: https://www.digital-science.com/resources/portfolio-reports/connected-culture-collaboration/. Interested parties may follow the conversations online using #OverleafReport.
