Increasingly, information is provided not on paper but directly through web sites, blogs, online news sites, social media, and user forums. Clipping is just another tool you can use to build your "library". DEVONthink has several mechanisms for clipping web contents. A browser extension, including a Safari-native one, bookmarklets, useful when using a browser with limited extension support, the macOS Share menu, and services. Capturing content in several formats, e.g., bookmarks, Markdown, formatted notes, rich text, etc. is fast and efficient. And for a more future-proof capture, or sometimes for problematic paywalled sites, you can also capture to PDF. And these formats are editable right in DEVONthink.
