Do you allow text and data mining?

Downloading articles from Sage Journals for the purposes of text and data mining (TDM) is permitted in our standard licence agreements and in our Sage Journals terms and conditions for no extra fee. You do not need to ask Sage's permission to systematically download articles, provided that:

  • You only use the articles for non-commercial text and data mining.
  • You ask your university library's permission to remove the IPs used for the project from their institutional IP ranges, and let them know that no Sage Journals usage will accrue on those IPs while they are used for TDM purposes.
  • You contact us at onlinesupport@sagepub.co.uk with the IPs needed for the project, along with an email from the library expressing their approval and understanding.
  • You only download articles to which you have legitimate access, for example if they are Open Access or part of your institution's subscription. If you cannot view an article on Sage Journals, you will not be able to download it.
  • You respect the following limits when downloading Sage Journals content:
