These are all the torrents currently managed and released by Anna’s Archive. For more information, see “Our projects” on the Datasets page. For Library Genesis and Sci-Hub torrents, the Libgen.li torrents page maintains an overview.
These torrents are not meant for downloading individual books. They are meant for long-term preservation.
Torrents with “aac” in the filename use the Anna’s Archive Containers format. Torrents that are crossed out have been superseded by newer torrents, for example because newer metadata has become available. Some torrents that have messages in their filename are “adopted torrents”, which is a perk of our top tier “Amazing Archivist” membership.
You can help out enormously by seeding torrents that are low on seeders. If everyone who reads this chips in, we can preserve these collections forever. This is the current breakdown:
| Status | Torrents | Size | Seeders |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🔴 | 54 | 154.0TB | <4 |
| 🟡 | 183 | 92.5TB | 4–10 |
| 🟢 | 111 | 17.2TB | >10 |
IMPORTANT: If you seed large amounts of our collection (50TB or more), please contact us at AnnaArchivist@proton.me so we can let you know when we deprecate any large torrents.
If you can do better let’s see it. This post is for altruists and archivists… clearly you’re neither.
This is just bad communication, beating down on people that are delivering constructive criticism.
Way to gatekeep. Don’t you think it would be better if more people could contribute bandwidth and storage with what they have instead of buy a new hardrive? Wouldn’t you want more redundancy, instead of less?
I don’t think they use an indexable compression as well, right? That essentially kills stuff for me.
The easiest way to host is not TB/PB sized archives but indices and slices for those.
It easier for a lot of us to download a few gigs and share that, rather than download TB/PB sized archives.
WTF he’s raising a good point
