The library now offers Thesaurus Linguae Graecae (or, TLG). This digital library serves up virtually all surviving Greek texts from Homer’s time (8th century BCE) to the fall of Byzantium in 1453 CE. One could call it the EEBO of ancient Greece!
Due to the nature of this product and the cost of a campus-wide license, TLG is only accessible from three designated computers on campus – one in the Classics department office, one on the main floor of the library, and one Mac on the library’s lower level. Each of these computers is marked with a blue sign indicating the availability of TLG.
Thanks to the internet, we can search and sort these texts at lightening speed. But it is still good to remember what Thales said: Ti tachiston? Nous. Dia pantos gar trechei. Enjoy.
