why?

I kept getting requests from friends who couldn’t find specific books in digital format. So, I’d go and find them… over and over again. Very inefficient, right? I agree.

After having my own frustrating experiences—digging through Telegram or having to sign up on websites just to get one book (hi, mir.az 👋)—I decided to build something better.

Even if it turned out kinda crappy, I just wanted to create a helpful resource for those preparing for the government exams. Something that actually makes your life easier.

how?

This site was built using a Hugo template. As of writing this post, the book page is powered by a modified version of
Calibre-Web-Automated.

I haven’t implemented a requests page yet—I don’t even know how many people will care about this site. For now, requests will be handled through Telegram.

why use spiderlily?

Nobody says you have to use Spiderlily. A large portion of books can be found elsewhere—like mir.az or specialized Telegram channels.

The difference?

• Well-organized metadata (so you can find what you need fast)
• No sign-ups
• No ads
• No junk

I always cite the source of the books I provide here. If you find something elsewhere that’s missing here—your contribution is greatly appreciated ❤️

Currently, the site mostly covers Azerbaijani sector, but my top priority is to make it useful for a wider audience. I’m planning to add Russian sector content soon.

As for the other sectors not mentioned above (French, German etc)—I don’t know much about you guys, so if you’re close to that environment, drop me a message on Telegram! I’d love to hear what books could be useful to you.

Also, feel free to request content. If I can afford it, I’ll buy and scan the book for you (as long as it doesn’t leave me starving lol).

what’s my profit?

Materially? None :)

I’m doing this out of curiosity, and from a desire to genuinely help people preparing for exams. If it helps even a few folks, that’s enough for me.

contribute?

Yes, please!

For obvious reasons, I can’t cover every single book out there. Just like you, I’m also preparing for one specific exam group, so my time and access are limited. But if we all contribute a little bit, we can build something truly helpful for a lot of people.

And hey, contribution doesn’t just mean sending in books.

If there’s any way you’d like to support or help keep this project alive — whether that’s giving feedback, helping with the development, or just spreading the word — send me a message on Telegram. I’d love to connect with like-minded people who care about this as much as I do.
