Keeping track of things that have already been located in newspaper search results can be a challenge–particularly if repeated searches of the same newspapers are warranted due to spelling errors, OCR difficulties with hard-to-read text, etc. Sometimes one finds the same thing over and over again.<\/p>\n

Newspapers.com<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>lets users “clip” images that contain items of interest. These clippings can be later be reviewed by the user. It’s a good way to keep track of things that have been located for future use. The clippings are also helpful when conducting new searches of the same materials.<\/p>\n

Newspapers.com<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0allows me to see if search terms are contained within “clippings” I have already created. They are indicated by outlined boxes in the thumbnail view of the search result newspaper image. I had been using the clippings as a way to “track” things I had found for later download, organization, and use. This is a great way to use the clippings to prevent me from finding the same thing over and over. I’m probably going to start clipping more items for this very reason.<\/p>\n

Now if there were just a way to note things I had seen and decided weren’t the person of interest.<\/p>\n

But this is at least a start.<\/p>\n
