The torrents are alive; as long as you can get the torrent links from libgen, you have access to the files. (No need to share whole archives either, you can pick & choose).

Nice. Althoigh it's difficult to find a specific book via torrents, isn't it?

The name of the pdf file inside the torrent is its md5 hashsum without the .pdf extension.

On libgen.rs you can see the md5 hashsum on the download page; on libgen.li you need to look at the JSON file provided at the link on the search result , as they don't render it on the ui.
