The following announcement comes from Fishwrap, the official blog of Newspapers.com:

Ever find the perfect newspaper story, only to realize it jumps across columns? You asked for a solution, and we heard you! No more “Part 1” and “Part 2” clippings, or saving giant, messy pages. Our improved clipping tool lets you select multiple areas on a single page and save them as a single cohesive clipping!

Here’s how it works:

• Click on the clipping tool.
• Drag your first box around the first part of the article.
• Hit the blue “+” icon to add another block (up to 5!)
• Title and save.

Now, when you view your clipping, the selected parts are highlighted.

Say goodbye to messy newspaper clippings. No more split stories. No more clutter. Just the history you’re looking for. You can also edit previously created clippings in the same way. Give this improved clipping tool a try today on Newspapers.com!

(I found this while searching to see if Newspapers.com would be offering its (traditional) free access over Mother's Day weekend. No news about that yet.)
