A polytonic Greek font must be installed on your computer in order to view some texts.
You should use the Unicode option on the Search screen for texts to display in Greek. You may have to use
Beta Code equivalents to enter Greek words or phrases into the search box. Advanced search provides a Greek keyboard on which you can click to select Greek letters.
Within the Libraries use Mozilla Firefox. It gives a better display of Greek texts than Internet Explorer does.

Description
|
|
The Thesaurus Linguae Graecae is a digital library of Greek literature currently including most literary texts
written in Greek from Homer to the fall of Byzantium. More than 3,800 authors and in excess of 12,000 full-text
works are included. The database provides information about the names, dates, geographical origins, and
descriptive epithets for each author, together with detailed bibliographical information about existing text
editions for each work.
Users can search the full database, limit searches by Author, Work or Publication, or browse a selected Author (e.g., Homerus) from an alphabetical menu. Advanced Search permits combination of different terms in one search.
