• MLIS books available digitally?

  Check out https://openlibrary.org. You can search ´library science’, librarian’, etc, and something should come up. Just select the ‘ebooks’ option to search for items within the collection. And you can narrow the search by subject, etc. Source: 5 months ago

• NaNoWriMo: National Novel Writing Month

  Right now I'm in the middle of the chicken and the egg problem where we don't have enough authors cataloging their publications and b/c of that obviously readers are not interested in using the site. I've gone back and forth with taking Open Libray's [0] catalog as that would at least flesh out our collection of books but then I'd have to deal with verifying authors to accounts so they can access their books.... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• YSK: You can access many old and out of print hiking books from the Internet Archive's Open Library

  The Internet Archive runs what they call the Open Library, which is a unique concept on the traditional library. You can sign-up with minimal details and digitally check out many scanned books from libraries all over the world. The only caveat is that almost all of the books are older editions - ones that would be impossible to find locally. It's great if you're looking for old routes, a look back in time, details...

• Searching for a pharmacy book

  I want to clarify that I'm a non-US citizen, so accessing physical copies from US libraries or buying it from Amazon might not be feasible for me. To give you some context, my personal research was guided by the wiki section of r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH (https://www.reddit.com/r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH/wiki/reading/).

• What's the best way to discover new manga?

  I usually Discovery new series through myanimelist.net/, baka-updates manga, through forum online, looking for reviews, looking to collections or hauls of other readers posted here or on you tube. Source: 7 months ago

• I feel like I’ve watched everything I like so please either give me something I haven’t watched yet based on my list or give me something I haven’t watched yet in general. I’m willing to expand my taste outside of shonen, medieval fantasy, and isekai.

  Do yourself a favor and make a MAL or anilist account so that it's easier to track and share what anime you've watched. Your list will only grow, so the best time to start is now. Source: 7 months ago

• Why is nearly every anime rated close to 5 stars or at least over 4, do they not understand 2.5 is average? Just random generic, plotless isekais are here getting like 4.9... are you fr? Stop rating everything 5 stars that defeats the entire purpose.

  For me the ratings on myanimelist.net are more useful. Source: 10 months ago
