Download Borrow Books From archive.org

Hello & Welcome to my channel. today I'm gonna show you how you can download books from archive.org which are available to borrow for 14 days or for 1 hour only. So, let's get started. You gonna need two things. the first one is the adobe digital edition, and the second is the e-book DRM removal bundle. I will provide the links to both of these programs in the description. Just download and install both of these by following the on-screen instructions. In the next step, you will have to create an account on archive.org. Since this is for demonstration purposes only, I will use a temporary mail service to create my account. After signing up, you have to verify your email. After verifying your email, sign in to your account. Now, search for the book you want to download. For demonstration purposes, I have already found two books. One is available to borrow for 14 days, and the other is available to borrow for 1 hour only. As you can see on the screen. Here you can see, it is available for 14 days. But this is available for one hour only. Now, click on borrow for 14 days. Scroll down a bit and you would find this option, which says, encrypted ADOBE PDF. A file will be downloaded. Let me rename it for easy understanding. Now go to the Book available for 1 hour only and click on borrow just like we did in the previous case. Now, when you will go down, surprisingly, there would be no option to download its encrypted PDF file. So, we will have to create its link manually by modifying this URL. Now, copy the book i-d from the address bar. The book i-d starts after from the forward-slash after details, and ends until the next forward slash. You will have to replace this portion with the book i-d. Remove the brackets as well. You can get this URL from the description. After replacing the book i-d, copy this whole URL and paste it into the same browser in which you have logged in. Another file will be downloaded. Let me rename it as well to differentiate. Here you can see both the files that we just have downloaded. One is available to borrow for 14 days. and this one available to borrow for 1 hour. In the next step, double-click on any file to open it. It will open up in Adobe  Digital Edition. It is asking to log in. But I will skip it. After that, the download will be started. As it will take some time to download, I will be back within a moment. Now, our book has been downloaded for offline reading, but still, it is not in PDF. And that you will lose access after 14 days. Before we go to the next step, let's download our second books as well. As it will take some time, I'm gonna skip this part a bit. Here we go. We have downloaded both of our books. Now let's convert these to PDF. On the top left corner, go to the file and choose, Show in explorer, or just press Control, +, E on your keyboard. Here you will find your downloaded books. Since, Here I have some other books too, Therefore, I'm gonna move our newly downloaded books to the desktop to avoid any confusion. Now, you can close the adobe digital edition. So, here are our PDF books. But these are encrypted. Which means you can't read them like this. Look what happens when I tried to open it. It won't open. Because it is encrypted. Let's try once again. Now, we will use our second tool to decrypt this file. So, open up the e-book DRM removal tool. You can add files by clicking on this plus file icon or just drag and drop the files into the DRM removal tool. From here, you can select your output folder. Now click on convert. But select the book that you want to convert. Now, wait, until the process is complete. As you can see here are both the converted files. Let's open both files and check these now. This is our book which was available for 1 hour only. As you can see, both books have been downloaded successfully. If you are facing any problems, please comment down below. I will try my best to answer. If you really find this tutorial helpful then please hit the like button and subscribe to my channel. Thanks for watching. GOODBYE.

    This may not apply to same/all cases but FWIW here's a bookmarklet method to download borrowed "scanned" books from archive.org if anyone's interested. Naturally make sure to delete the files once your book borrow time has expired!

    Hi! I failed to download the books which can only be borrowed for 1 hour. I followed your method but the webpage just show that "The item you are trying to edit cannot be retrieved. This problem may be temporary, or the identifier supplied is invalid or references a removed resource". Could you help with that?

      It's because you're not removing the [ ] from the URL, these are just to indicate where to paste the address of your book.

    The download technique is no longer supportive as environment of the web site has been changed recently. May I have the solution for downloading books in accordance with new conditions.

    Full version DRM Removal is not free :( Can you give free program for it?

  • Gothiko1979

    Still works perfectly. One of the simplest and most effective methods I have found. Thank you very much.

    As a contribution, to remove the DRM use the program Calibre, it's free, and you only have to load the book from the Adobe library, save it in (for example) the desktop and that's it.

    Was working a few days ago but now the file cannot be downloaded

    Correction. ADE gave some error message a couple of times (relating to license), but after half an hour it worked and downloaded the book without any issue.

    And as to using Calibre for removing DRM, it works great too as it makes one step less if you are using calibre anyway.

    Unable to download. Error getting License. License Server Communication Problem:
    E_STREAM_ERROR:
