Body: <p>I came across a site called "Z Library", in particular, b-ok.org which is "part of Z-libary project".  This site has a free download of a book I really, really, really want.  It has the "look and feel" of a completely legitimate and professional site.  But I take a look at some of the books they have available and I can't believe they are legally free.  Anyone know of copyright issues with "Z Library" sites?  Is this legit?</p>
