I just want to allow people who can't access libraries easily to experience some of that.
What I can see might be useful is a traditional Web space that creates a lesser but similar "flavor" of the awe by showing plenty of book titles while letting you navigate in different directions like you would wonder along the shelves in a physical library. At least such a low tech Web version can be consumed from less than wealthy countries.
It seems the one things libraries have going for them versus digital services is the emotional effect that these physical places have on us. That doesn't bode well for libraries long term.
Unfortunately, the libraries I went to, have drastically shrunk their accessible physical collections in favor of keeping most books in storage.
They say that this ease of information is causing physical changes in how our brains operate.
Libgen.rs may have an unimaginably larger number of titles on offer, but it's not quite the same as walking into a cathedral-size store of books and looking at the weight of humanity's greatest achievements staring back at you. Libraries are awesome. We should support them, and keep supporting them, as much as possible.
