Z library

Z-Library (abbreviated as z-lib, formerly BookFinder) is a shadow library project for file-sharing access to scholarly journal articles, academic texts and general-interest books. It began as a mirror of Library Genesis, from which most of its books originate.[3][4] Individuals can also upload files.[5] Z-Library was ranked as the 8,182nd most active website by the Alexa Traffic Rank service in October 2021.[6] It is especially popular in emerging economies and among academics.[7] As of December 1, 2022, Z-Library reported having more than 11,767,409 books and 84,837,643 articles.[8] It also describes itself as "the world's largest e-book library", as well as "the world's largest scientific articles store", and as a non-profit organization sustained by donations.
