I'm building out an #InternetInABox with books that meet at least one criteria:

jonobie@social.coop

1. Fun/interesting to discover
2. Useful if the internet is briefly inaccessible (i.e., a windstorm has taken out power for 1-7 days)
3. Potentially Solarpunk themed

They *must* be creative commons or public domain as well as generally G or PG-13.

Example: "The Sourdough Framework" meets 1&3: https://www.the-sourdough-framework.com/

What would you add or suggest?

(Please boost!)

I would love to find a Creative Commons / Public domain book or pamphlet about knot tying, for example. Anyone know of one?

Or a similar pamphlet or guide about easy methods for water sanitation?

#InternetInABox has content packs I can load about knot tying and water sanitization methods, but it would be a LOT cleaner and nicer for the UI if I could tuck a book in the Calibre-Web portion of the site.

@valhalla Oooo, this is good - I can use PDF in Calibre-Web (which actually reads PDF pretty well, unlike main Calibre).

I have Kiwix as part of IIAB, so can potentially download ZIMs that include it -- though generally it seems like the options I have are "download big slices of a site", rather than "this specific page". And part of what I'm trying to do is curate a bit rather than hoover up everything on a site.

I think I can make this work - thanks!!
