The booklist file has changed and I have adapted the code accordingly. It seems that there are now fewer books (389 vs 407) in the list even though the old links still work if you already have the file. As @adriano.vilela has already noticed the file size has been reduced but all books still seem to be there.
Here are some stats for the download using the old list:
(base) ~/Documents/books > find -type f | wc -l
408

Edit:
I noticed that some books are available as EPUBs so I added the format argument which can be set to “epub” to download those.

Is this still the original group of books (less a small number of books removed after it was first put up)?
I did download everything initially available.
For me every book ends up with a zero size even though the download runs through all the books in the list. The files are all there but with 0 size. Anyone else seeing this?

Would love to download these if they are legally still available.
Very strange. It seems that the request does return a valid response but the body is empty then. Did you try with the kwarg printerrors=true? Does is show an error?

There’s no error with printerrors = true, but the files all have zero size.
julia> physicsbooks = filter(row -> occursin(r".*Physics.*", row[Symbol("English Package Name")]),booklist)
julia> loadbooks(path, physicsbooks, printerrors=true)

I checked and some of the books are empty for me too but not all of them. I will investigate
It still doesn’t work for me either. All files 0 bytes. @danielw2904 my guess is they are no longer available?
EDIT: It looks like the period is up. link
