LaTeX is a photo-typesetting system much favoured by scientists and engineers for its ability to handle complex mathematical formulae and produce high quality output. It is possible to “write and cite” in a LaTeX document and automatically generate a reference list based on the citations in the document.
There are many, mostly free, versions (distributions) of LaTeX available either for download (e.g. Texmaker, TeXnicCenter, TeXworks) or as web-based versions (e.g. Overleaf).
PC clusters in the Library and in many departments have several LaTeX distributions already available via the Software Hub: MiKTeX, TeXnicCenter, Texmaker.
