Elsevier has recently announced a new policy on text and data mining, or TDM. The implementation of the policy requires that libraries sign an agreement with Elsevier that will permit their patrons to use TDM tools on Elsevier’s content. Many libraries have questions on the implications of this policy – and on TDM in general. Below we outline the essential issues and offer some guidance on how libraries might consider responding to this new policy.
