At the California Digital Library we have included provision for
content mining in our model license and discussions since 2008, and
have successfully negotiated this with a handful of vendors.  We
include this as part of each discussion:

Text Mining. Authorized Users may use the licensed material to perform
and engage in text mining /data mining activities for legitimate
academic research and other educational purposes.

Our standard license agreement may be viewed at:
www.cdlib.org/gateways/vendors/guidelines_licensing.html

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at [log in to unmask]

With best wishes,

Suggestion: include data and text mining in your license.

Here is the language (from the permitted uses section) from the BC ELN
Model License:

DATA and TEXT MINING.  Members and Authorized Users may conduct
research employing data or text mining of the Licensed Materials.

More information and a link to download the BC ELN Model license can
be found here:  http://www.eln.bc.ca/view.php?id=1537

best,

Heather Morrison
