AA has managed to stay up for surprisingly long. I hope they will continue to do so. There is a large amount of documents that are hard to find anywhere else there, not to mention all the university books that would cost a a fortune to buy for a poor student...

EDIT: typo.

I've gotten so much good stuff off there.

What are you guys getting from there? What kind of books/materials? Not to judge or spy on you ~~(what a spy would say)~~, but just genuinely curious.

Some very niche books, like books that are related to a game series for example. Also some university literature, scientific papers and history/culture books that are either hard to find or very expensive locally.

Just about everything except obscure old books
