Hello, book lovers!
Zlibrary project team is on the air and today we’re going to tell you about several interesting updates. Let’s go!

Do you know that we have a home page? On this page, you can always find the relevant information about available domains (books and articles) for your region. As soon as you get to the Home page, our system will automatically match an available domain for you. We recommend you to save it to your bookmarks in case any of the site addresses doesn't work. You can also get to this page by clicking on the “ZLibrary Home” button in the upper left corner of the page.

We always listen to your ideas and the next feature was also suggested by our users. Now you can manually mark books as downloaded. This will be especially useful if the book you downloaded has several versions. You just need to hover over a book cover and the button “Mark as downloaded” will appear.

Some improvements also affected our recommendation system. On the main page in the personal recommendations, we hide almost all books that you have earlier downloaded, so more new recommendations will be displayed now.

Thank you very much for your attention and active commenting on blog posts. We save all your suggestions to our special list and discuss it on the team meetings. Also, we are aware that all of you are waiting for the Book request option, and we are not abandoning this feature, but before we start developing it, we need to release a few more important updates. By the way, speaking about important updates, we are currently working on a new categorizing system.

Bad libraries build collections, good libraries build services, great libraries build communities
