How to get a college education knowledge at home?

I already have a university degree, but I would like to study on my own a different field, for pleasure. What I specifically want to do is download the full bibliography for the entire years length course (in my case biology) from some prestigious university and read it at my pace.

Any reliable way to do this people are already aware of?

Also, how do you guys stay in touch with advancements in your field if you are not pursuing that field anymore? I find that furthering your education outside universities is almost impossible, finding content on the internet is not easy, people don't share things outside of academia.

In the CURRENT YEAR with internet available for everyone I can't believe there are no free resources (even if pirated) that are equivalent of a University course of 4 to 5 years online.

A formal e-education should be easier to achieve online, and that should be the first step in dismantling the outdated university system.

Look in popular uni programs from Cambridge or Oxford for example and download the required books from libgen.
Note that you wont be on par with their students because they actively engage in laboratory exercises day in day out,and you wont have that privilege.

>>	Anonymous Wed Dec 4 07:32:28 2019 No.11198333 >>11198330 There are no required textbooks at Cambridge (probably oxford too). It's all notes. You can find them either on lecturers' websites or http://dec41.user.srcf.net/

>>	Anonymous Wed Dec 4 10:37:40 2019 No.11198633 What's the subject? You can find textbook lists from various unis, and get them off of libgen. At the undergrad level, this is easy. Even graduate level stuff isn't difficult, just use scihub or something similar.

>>	Anonymous Wed Dec 4 19:26:29 2019 No.11199847 >>11198323 This. Look up the book the course your local college uses and just download that and read it. Most of my classes taught from the textbook anyway.
