- ahmed_ds 5y agoIsn't it fantastic that we are alive and seeing the resurrection of the great library of Alexandria right before our eyes? She has done more than any other organization or individual in the history of mankind when helping people in second and third world country pursue advance research since the advent of internet. Well she and the people who pirate and distribute MS Office. Faculties around the world recommend scihub as the main and only source of research and journals.
