Internet-in-a-Box
Internet-in-a-Box is a low cost digital library, consisting of a wireless access point with storage, which users nearby can connect to.
Its realization in hardware and software has changed since 2012, as miniaturization of storage space and electronics progressed. As of 2017, its hardware may consist of a Raspberry Pi with a replaceable storage card.
In 2016, Columbia University's Masters in Public Administration in Development Practice explored using these boxes in Dominican Republic for three months.Digital library
