To be clear, I have no problem buying ebooks and do so quite often. But where I live its often hard to find ebooks in my preferred language without resorting to Am*zon, especially when it comes to the more obscure titles.

Now that Zlibrary is gone, where do people go for liberated ebooks?

    As per the previous comment, you can still find Z-Library via Tor at this onion address: loginzlib2vrak5zzpcocc3ouizykn6k5qecgj2tzlnab5wcbqhembyd.onion/

    But you need to create an account to access it (use a disposable email address). Otherwise I know libgen.li is a well stocked archive

    Who said that Zlib is gone? Besides Tor, you can get access to personal domains by sending an email to blackbox [at] zlib [dot] se

    I know it may sound scammy, but if you still have a Reddit account I’d go to r/zlibrary and browse the pinned megathread for more info. I really hope that this community will eventually migrate here though…

    The zlibrary is still available on Tor, which isn’t that difficult to use (even on mobile).
