We currently restrict articles whenever we're asked to do so but this feature allows a slightly softer solution where users simply add a correction notice or legal warning which every reader then has to acknowledge before being allowed to view the article text or PDF.  Since ClipShare is only available to other publishers you can use this simple tool to correct inaccuracies or simply pass notice of legal concerns without going so far as removing the article entirely.

Hopefully this will be useful to all.  Please drop us an e-mail if you'd like to try it out.

]]>Improving the Interfacehttp://blog.nla-clipshare.com/clipshare-blog/2008/4/11/improving-the-interface.htmlMichael Pocock2008-04-11T15:41:50Z2008-04-11T15:41:50ZAfter another disgracefully long period of silence on this blog, we're able to provide some good news for the 1,000+ of you now using the interface.

We've been getting some helpful feedback from a number of you and have now compiled a list of tweaks and fixes that should address some of those concerns.  If you'd like to suggest any improvements we could make or aspects of the interface that just aren't quite what you're looking for, please send an e-mail to mpocock@nla.co.uk and we'll add them to the list.

Look forward to hearing from you.

To share a couple of quotes (I'll add more as they get approved):

"I've been using ClipShare for three months. It's superb and completely knocks spots off our existing system. It is fast and reliable, and the key feature is to be able to see the whole page - and save it as a PDF." - Marc Reeves, Editor, Birmingham Post

"I did log-in to Clipshare and did find it useful as a source of searching regional papers for local links. I used by text form and PDFs, and seeing copy in context, as it appeared in-paper, was of great value." - A regional editor

"ClipShare would help me to do my job because it seems to be a fast and effective tool for research and fact-checking." - David McKay, Sub-Editor, Daily Record
