So, /sci/... where do you find textbooks online? All my links from last year are dead because of the megaupload shenanigans.

I usually just use google and hope for the best. The best being a website with russian or chinese letters in it. Those always have what I need.

Piratebay, Demonoid, other torrenting sites... also great for software (I picked up copies of MaximDL and Mathematica that have been lifesavers).

We'll sometimes have textbook exchange threads here on /sci/ as the semesters approach but other than that all you can really do is sit down and search.

The best for me has always been library genesis - Thank the Russians!

Those russian websites aren't loading for me.

Anyway, I've had a little success googling. Just found two of the ones I need, although one is an "international edition", think it'll matter?

International eds for me have always been the same, except they were paperback.
