Note: I found this on the /r/Piracy subreddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/3i9y7n/guide_for_finding_textbooks/?sort=confidence) however I am including a copy here just in case.

So you have a list of books you need to buy for college. There are some really great resources for finding them online, but I'm going to run through the easiest methods for searching all of them here.

First, let's start off by using the method that will allow you to find the vast majority of books. Google. It tends to be easier if you can search multiple sites at once, and this is the easiest way to do it.

There was a search engine that /u/ratokursi made 3 years ago, but by now most of the sites are either dead or have changed the url. I decided to make a new one, this time after reviewing 100+ sites and adding to working ones to the custom search engine.

Installing Node.js with `nvm` to Linux & macOS & WSL

A quick guide on how to setup Node.js development environment.

Install `nvm` for managing Node.js versions

nvm allows installing several versions of Node.js to the same system. Sometimes applications require a certain versions of Node.js to work. Having the flexibility of using specific versions can help.

Open new Terminal window.

	var text3d = new THREE.TextGeometry("123123123131", {
	size: 0.2,
	height: 0.1,
	font: 12
	});
	text3d.computeBoundingBox();

	var material = new THREE.MeshFaceMaterial([
	new THREE.MeshPhongMaterial({color: 0xffffff, shading: THREE.FlatShading}), // front
	new THREE.MeshPhongMaterial({color: 0xffffff, shading: THREE.SmoothShading}) // side

	// Simple Undo / Redo System

	* There are usually 2 different ways to handle undo / redo
	* 1. you snapshot and store the states, so you can load them anytime
	* 2. you store the deltas, actions, events or commands between save points.
	*
	* Method 1 is simplistic. But it works. It's a lot like git.

	function handleDrag(element, ondown, onmove, onup, down_criteria) {
	var pointer = null;
	var bounds = element.getBoundingClientRect();

	element.addEventListener('mousedown', onMouseDown);

	#------------------------------------------
	# PANTHEON WORKFLOW AUTOMATION v0.1
	# Using the Pantheon CLI (terminus) v0.71
	#------------------------------------------

	# Create a backup of the Live Environment
	# eg. pwa-backup mysite live db
	function pwa-backup(){
	terminus site backup create --site=$1 --env=$2 --element=$3 --latest
	}

	let taskIndex = parseInt(e.target.value, 10);
	console.log('remove task: %d', taskIndex, this.state.list[taskIndex]);
	this.setState(state => {
	state.list.splice(taskIndex, 1);
	return {items: state.list};
	});

	var updatedList = this.state.list.filter(function(item){
	return item.toLowerCase().search(
	evt.target.value.toLowerCase()) !== -1;
	});
	this.setState({ list: updatedList });

	//Functions

	// `current` API function returns the current step step
	var current = function() {
	return steps.indexOf(activeStep);
	};

	// `total` API function returns the number of steps present
	var total = function() {
	return steps.length;
