Is this an official Z-Library website?
No. Independent Library Index is an independent editorial resource, not affiliated with Z-Library. Names and search terms identify the subject of the guides.
What does “Z-Library working link” mean in this index?
The index records an HTTP HEAD response and its timestamp. Even a successful response does not verify the operator, an account service or the availability of a particular book.
Does a mirror or proxy label verify a website?
No. Those words describe a relationship claimed elsewhere, not a relationship verified by this index. We do not run a proxy, frame another site or relay its pages.
Can I sign in or download books here?
No. There are no login, registration or credential forms, and we do not host books, PDF files, EPUB files or app packages. Outbound links open the destination’s own website.
Why do searches use zlib, z-lib and zlibrary?
People use different spellings, and “zlib” can also refer to unrelated software. Read the complete hostname and context rather than assuming every similar name refers to the same service.
What if an address redirects or rejects HEAD?
The recorded state says exactly that. Redirect destinations are not followed automatically, and a 403 or 405 response can reflect server policy. It should not be turned into a claim that a service or replacement address has been verified.
