The Perseus Project is an
evolving digital library of resources for the study of the humanities.
We are funded to perform research on developing tools to provide users
with improved access to various types of materials. Past work has
focused on building and linking together collections. Current work
considers ways of developing and refining tools for presentation of the
materials in the Perseus DL. We are primarily a research project,
although we do incorporate services for our audience. For more on who
we are and what we do, see the About Perseus page, our list of
publications, and information on our collaborations.
Currently, we offer access to materials
free of charge, with the exception of certain copyrighted images, noted
below. As we explain elsewhere, we are not funded to provide services,
but to do research on how people use these materials and how use may be
improved or refined. We offer no warranty on use, as outlined here.
Although portions of the data may be derived from public domain
materials, the Perseus Project has created tools and structure to link
this data to the remainder of the library. Please see copyright
information for more on rights and right holders, and consider
supporting Perseus with a donation.
