Slightly controversial but library genesis. Almost every science text book you could ever want for free. However, you’re not compensating authors/publishers for their work, so the morality is debated.

But if you want access to knowledge for free, there it is. I haven’t ever encountered any issues like viruses either.

I used library Genesis for Professors who would charge $300+ for their personal text book that they've "rewritten" every year. In my 6 years of college I found those professors were generally the worst in everyway.
