To me, an aspiring scholar, LibGen is the most amazing tool ever. Things like inter-library loan and access to databases on university networks already make life so much easier to what it used to be—but nothing beats LibGen in terms of convenience. I’m in a the nowadays obscure field of patristic theology and I can’t believe how much stuff I can find on LibGen, often things that even highly specialized research libraries like Harvard don’t have.

The hours that LibGen saved me in gathering all the sources for my research must be in the hundreds. Thank you!
