I recently redid the layout on the AAP site so that each collection will present a gallery of images rather than a list of text. I've continued to upload more items as more metadata has come in. A breakthrough I made while writing this was figuring out which metadata fieldto use for the descriptions of our items, since Scalar uses the description field for alt-text (text meant to describe images for the visually impaired). All of the PDFs in our shared drive have been uploaded, the items left to upload are a large collection of uncategorized images. Really excited to continue expanding the collection!
