Tracks

Guided reading, in a fixed order.

A row of bound volumes laid out in sequence on a shelf

A track is a curated sequence of the notes and deep dives already on the shelf, ordered so each reading assumes the one before it. You can read the shelf in any order you like; a track is for the reader who wants a path with a stated outcome.
