Add in that the URL you are trying to use has borrow in the path and a question comes to mind:

Do you have a configuration that will log you in to archive.org to allow borrowing the book?

@JSWolf: Please note I get the same 500 error using all the browsers I tested on Windows 10 1909 and 2004, Mac OSX Catalina, SUSE Tumbleweed, Ubuntu 20.04 and Raspbian. I find myself doubting that his issue was caused by using Windows 7.
I wasn't saying it was an issue with Windows 7. The OP said Calibre cannot be updated any further due to Windows 7. So I was posting to update Windows7 to Windows 10 so Calibre can also be updated.

Then I said it was a problem on archive.org's side of things.
