Creating Stacks and Adding Publications to Stacks

Stacks are a great way to organize your own publications, as well as any other publications that you find interesting. For your own publications, after you are done publishing them, Stacks are an easy way for readers to discover all your content in one place.

Stacks are similar to a bookshelf in that, if you put all your publications in one Stack, a user who clicks on that Stack or follows your Stack will be able to see all your publications.

NOTE: Unlisted publications that are added to a stack are only viewable to you the publisher,  and not your readers.
