Seconding Library Genesis. ZLibrary has a nice selection and all, but I'm kind of put off by how you need an account to access it. No such issues with LibGen.

i was going for legal materials first. Not a fan of pirating books unless theyre corporate backed content such as college textbooks

https://www.gutenberg.org/ Project Gutenberg has all legal materials. Consider it.
