June 19, 2012The best way to use any good torrent site because some people shared their data on torrent sites instead of uploading to a hosting site. You can search for your electronics books at http://torrentz.eu

June 19, 2012Hi Fred,
You didn’t mention what kind of books you need; you’re student, so I only could try to suggest some websites:
-http://www.digilibraries.com/ – books available in PDF, ePUB, mobi
-http://arxiv.org/ – books from Cornell University Library (as they say, “arXiv is an e-print service in the fields of physics, mathematics, non-linear science, computer science, quantitative biology, quantitative finance and statistics”)
-http://freecomputerbooks.com/mathCategory.html – as they say, “Free Computer, Mathematics, Technical Books and Lecture Notes etc”
-http://www.sciencebooksonline.info/ – “directory of free science texts, e-books, monographs, lecture notes, and other science related documents”.
Also, try this link: http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/50-places-free-books-online.htm#genre_pages
