Take a look again at the following thread:

Take Jastrow's dictionary.  This is out of copyright.  The plates are
available on the web:
http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/webbin/book/lookupname?key=Jastrow%2C%20Marcus

But here the BDB is used in scanned/digitized form.  This is different.
One may choose to ignore or to think that for their own purposes the
works are permissible, but it is clear that the respective publishers do
not think so.
