#zlibrary seems to have been seized by the FBI. Literally one of the most useful websites in existence, especially for college students ☹️

@meena It's a shadow library, basically you can download loads of articles and books from there. I've used it a lot for my master thesis, since many scientific articles are stuck behind paywalls.

@Gina Use libgen.gs since it is fully free and doesnt demand that you pay a monthly sub

@Gina And that's why. The corpo-'education' complex can't have people learn shit for free. They have to squeeze the last nickel out of your wallet, and leave you hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt, and still not teach you the shit you want and need to learn.

@menherahair @Gina Write a custom html page in her mother language that just makes a request to a libgen mirror. Something simple, like a big fat search bar. Call it the "BookApp" and save it on the desktop.
