I love books and have a good collection myself but I just want to keep some books that I could find useful on y tablet. In case you have to leave the house for a while, few titles like the manual to repair your own car (I am not a mechanic but might have to be!), basic engineering stuff, maps.... a lot of think that put together would take a lot of space and bloody weight!! My back still remember my last move from boxes full of books ;) ;)
For the documents, I agree you need to have some paper copies with you but if your organise yourself a bit it would only take few minutes to grab a folder on your way out. At my work, I keep a folder by the office door with employees info, weekly rota, numbers for head office and officials etc.... came very handy a few years back when I had to leave in emergency as some nuts job park a car with explosive by Tiger Tiger in London!

Have got a tablet myself so would not be a problem for me to throw pdf copies of things into a folder onto that also going to keep them on a pen drive and I am planning on keeping some basic stuff in the truck anyway more to keep the boys in blue happy.

I use the tablet day to day in the truck for everything to the point that I went and bought the proper broddit mount for it so its nice and secure in the truck plus always charged, use it for movies, music, navigation both normal day to day stuff and when doing event work and off road work I can just plonk routes on it etc. I will be adding some books to it as and when funds allow for me to buy them from amazon as I use the kindle app and with it being android based and my phone also its nice and easy to keep things synced up

As one person mentioned if I do have to bug out or in a SHTF moment the truck is kitted to be self sufcicent so with having some movies tunes etc on it then it helps windle away the time a bit more.

I own a ipad and I have to say the battery life is very good, it has most of my photos and al the apps I need to keep me busy for weeks, have even managed to put on the SAS survival guide book as well as maps and other useful apps, music, videos etc and the best thing is I have a dynamo charger so it never goes flat
