Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

You can scroll or pinch to zoom the view, or click and hold to drag its contents around. Clicking any filled circle will reveal its connections; clicking again will hide them. Clicking an item's title opens the associated content (page or media file).
The table of contents itself can be set in the Book Properties tab of the dashboard.
