I'm doing a test of IPFS and just started uploading a library of public-domain books on a variety of topics that would be useful in a post-EMP or massive technical disruption scenario.

The books are mostly pre-electrical age - mid-1800s to early 1900s.

Check out the survivor-library here:

Wait.. how are you going to read those ebooks in a post-EMP scenario?

Using an old technology called paper to print the books before trouble hits.

Cool idea. You should consider adding also some relevant patents. There's plenty of knowledge in there not captured by books.

This knowledge may be useful if we were to rebuild for example an airship (just naming one of your categories for example).

That's a great idea!
