1. A non-transitory, computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause processing circuitry to:
receive, based on one or more user inputs in an issue editing graphical user interface (GUI), an indication of a plurality of articles to be included in an electronic issue, a respective article classification for each article of the plurality of articles, and a first order in which the articles of the plurality of articles are to have within the electronic issue, wherein each article classification is indicative of an article of the plurality of articles having a first classification or a second classification;
generate in the issue editing GUI, based on the indication, an editable representation of a table of contents for the electronic issue, by:
identifying one or more first articles of the plurality of the plurality of articles having the first classification; and
generating a first section of the table of contents;
inserting, into the first section of the table of contents, the one or more first articles of the plurality of articles having the first classification in a same relative order as the one or more first articles appear in the first order;
identifying one or more second articles of the plurality of the plurality of articles having the second classification;
generating a second section of the table of contents;
inserting, into the second section of the table of contents, the one or more second articles of the plurality of articles having the second classification in a same relative order as the one or more second articles appear in the first order; and
providing, in the issue editing GUI, the editable representation of the table of contents for the electronic issue, wherein the editable representation of the table of contents comprises:
the first section comprising a first listing of the one or more first articles of the plurality of articles having the first classification in the same relative order as the one or more first articles appear in the first order; and
the second section comprising a second listing of the one or more second articles of the plurality of articles having the second classification in the same relative order as the one or more second articles appear in the first order.
