But utilization mileage can vary. Project champions are encouraged to start looking for resources the soonest to back up the contents of TeLS and replace or upgrade [[elibrary-system|the system]] in due time. The hardware may also last longer if they are maintained with an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).

 +  * We don't have our own baseline info yet from the field on the wear and tear of the hardware that runs [[library-box|eLibrary in a Box]]. But [[https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/38321/raspberry-pi-lifespan-reliability|reports elsewhere]] indicate the microcomputer Raspberry Pi can run up to 3 years. So keep your fingers crossed. The odds of the hardware not breaking should also improved if it's on a UPS.
 +  * The microSD card used in the [[library-box|Library in a Box]] is expected to break ahead of the microcomputer itself. So standby replacements are in order.\\ \\ Newer, bigger-capacity cards are also needed to accommodate more, newer materials for periodic updates.

 +===== eLib Contents =====
 +  * Contents on the [[elibrary-system|TeLS]] are self-curated by host institutions or schools. Partners are encouraged to have their own curation program, preferably led by their own librarians. 
 +  * Contents on the [[library-box|eLib Box]] are curated by [[http://mainit.org|Tambayayong Mainit]]. But other organizations can fork the system to include a different set of contents. For the "official" periodic release of the system, the latest version is supposed to be better than previous ones. 
 +  * Suggestions to improve the contents of both TeLS and eLib Box contents may be posted via [[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfNNL7BOUdJfneanrpv3fNkOB7V1WvX0Q3sBnXE-zW6BEdjiA/viewform|this online form]]. \\ \\ Teachers and librarians should take the lead in determining the contents of the eLib.
