Oh, I think sources will be scarce, but for material reasons--cheap paper, fragile electronics, etc.
So, on the one hand I see this. On the other hand, the storage capacity means that a relatively small number of surviving physical volumes could easily contain a TON of information. Could easily take all of wikipedia, stick it on a solid-state drive and drop that in orbit.

And while the paper is easily lost, the cheapness of printing it means you really only need one part of the globe to survive the whatever catastrophe intact to have a lot of sources. The best research library even in many mid-income or fairly poor countries would have...

...orders of magnitude more information and sources than anything we have pre-1400 or so. So after the USA and whoever nuke ourselves into dust, the library of, I dunno, Brazil or Kenya or something will still retain a lot of information on whatever dumb thing we did.

I don’t think we can count on a solid state drive surviving in a useable state for long and even if it did, you would need compatible hardware to read it.
