The Royal Society and Overleaf announce partnership
London – July 6, 2016: Overleaf is pleased to announce a new partnership with The Royal Society. Through this partnership, authors submitting to Proceedings of the Royal Society A will have access to the award-winning Overleaf collaborative cloud-based writing and reviewing tool with 1-click submission into the Proceedings A ScholarOne submission system.
The Proceedings A journal authoring template is available within the Overleaf platform to help authors write, collaborate and submit their work in the correct journal format. Once authors are finished writing, they can quickly and easily submit to Proceedings A using the 1-click submission link within Overleaf. All files and necessary information will be seamlessly transferred to the Proceedings A submission system – greatly simplifying the author’s submission experience.
Phil Hurst, Publisher at the Royal Society, says:
“We are pleased to partner with Overleaf to provide Proceedings A authors with a simpler and more flexible route to publication.”
John Hammersley, Founder & CEO of Overleaf says:
“As a mathematician myself, I’m delighted that we’re now able to provide a direct submission link from Overleaf to Proceedings A. This is a great partnership, one that enables The Royal Society and Overleaf to offer a simpler writing and submission process for Royal Society authors worldwide.”
Links to the template and Overleaf platform will be available within the Proceedings A journal website and author guidelines.
