Is there any way to download the docs en masse to serve as a mirror? I imagine the total is in the tens of terabytes (at the very least), but maybe a physics-related mirror would be possible for one person.

How about a TOR hidden service? You wouldn't need to cache anything though bandwidth may be an issue.

  I'd think IPFS and similar services would be perfect for this kind of thing.

  Sci-Hub has an onion address ("scihub22266oqcxt.onion") for access through Tor.

There's torrent repository on libgen which (I believe) contains both the books on libgen and the research on sci-hub. They don't have descriptive file names however, so I'm not sure about turning the backup into a mirror.

  They also provide regular database dumps so it should be easy to match up the files to their content.
