Project Gutenberg

  • English Project Gutenberg (3.36 GB): Part 1, 2, 3, 4

All update files use 7-zip compression. We recommend using 7-zip for Windows or The Unarchiver for Mac to extract the pieces into one folder. For more details on the file structure visit our Wiki.

How to put WikiReader English Updates – Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikiquote and Project Guttenberg on the same 16GB card

Note: You don’t need to download all those Wikis along with Gutenberg. Just download the ones you want.

  1. Download the Base Image
  2. English Wikipedia parts 1-5
  3. English Wictionary
  4. English Wikiquote
  5. Project Guttenberg parts 1-4
  6. Use 7-Zip (right-click and choose 7-Zip, Unzip to “foldername”) to unzip the Base, Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikiquote, and Gutenberg downloads to separate folders. For the Wikipedia and Guttenberg downloads (with more than one zip file), you only have to tell 7-Zip to unzip the 001 file (enpedia-yyyymmdd.7z.001, and enguten-yyyymmdd.7z.001) and it will automatically unzip all the files in each set.
  7. Delete any existing files and folders on your microSD card.
  8. Copy the unzipped Base Image files (from the base-yyyymmdd folder) onto the microSD card (into the root directory).
  9. Copy the unzipped Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikiquote, and Guttenberg folders (enpedia, endict, enquote and enguten) onto the microSD card (they will be subfolders of the enpedia-yyyymmdd, endict-yyyymmdd, enquote-yyyymmdd, and enguten-yyyymmdd folders).
  10. Put the microSD card in your WikiReader.
