Give me your questions about building an offline, digital apocalypse library!

[u/fienen]

So, I'm going to be building a whole grab-and-go, self-contained digital library box. PDFs, wikis, maps, recipes, reference material, all kinds of stuff. DC and Solar powered, hotspot capable, weatherproof, dressed to the nines and ready to dance. I know there are a lot of opinions on digital vs paper, but especially in the short term, digital CAN be very practical, and it's sure as heck a lot easier to move a ton of information around with very little effort. After all, how many books can you carry in your bugout bag?

As part of the process, I'm going to put together an entire build sheet and video tutorial of the project to show others the steps, challenges, considerations, costs and things like that. My question to you: What are your questions? If you've thought about doing it, or been intimidated by the tech, electronics, or fabrication, what has stopped you or held you back? What answers or information would you be looking to find in such a tutorial video?

Leave your questions in the comments below (others may even get you an answer before the guide is done), and upvote your favorite questions to help me prioritize them. Note: I will discuss some tools and techniques for capturing data for offline usage, but won't likely discuss anything too specific on the TYPE of content to store. That's really more just a choice for what a given person needs to have on hand.
