The TLG materials are intended for non-commercial scholarly use. Permissive use includes processing, investigation, and analysis of the TLG materials, provided such processing is not undertaken for purposes of producing a commercially published document which includes extensive portions of the TLG materials or which reproduces all or part of the TLG materials in a form differing from the original form primarily as a result of mechanical, electronic, or other manipulation.

Examples of permitted use are the following: searches for words and phrases; statistical analyses; the production of indices and concordances intended for use as intermediate tools by the scholar or scholarly team engaged in research into the data and not intended for wider distribution; and all other text processing and text manipulation activities which are clearly identifiable as scholarly research. Examples of uses which are not permitted are the publication of a Greek text from materials supplied by TLG if such text does not reflect the addition of significant value by the editor, the downloading and reformatting of the texts for redistribution, or the production of scholarly tools which consist primarily of a mechanical, electronic or other similar rearrangement of text and are intended for commercial publication and distribution.

Users are not restricted from publishing the results of scholarly investigation and analysis of the TLG materials. In any publication arising from the use of TLG materials, the author(s) shall acknowledge the Thesaurus Linguae Graecae as the source of the material which assisted the author(s)’s investigations and shall indicate that such material is copyrighted by TLG and the Regents of the University of California.
