Don't have any digitized survival manuals? Military field manuals are the place to start, and you can find a whole slew of 'em here or via a simple Google search. Thanks to Bro. Randy for the link.
Of course, the best place for survival knowledge is in your brain, but having a library in your pocket isn't anything to sneer at. You will find yourself reading up on obscure topics while waiting around.
If you don't have some kind of smart phone, it's a worthwhile upgrade--on my iPhone, I've got a slew of books and manuals, a road GPS app, topo GPS app, weather radar, emergency band scanner, compass, alarm clock, as well as the usual camera, music, videos, web browser and other good stuff. Don't go anywhere without it. If you hate dealing with cell phone sales reps like I do, buying online is a good option.
