>Knowledge That Never Goes Offline

>What is Project N.O.M.A.D.? Node for Offline Media, Archives, and Data

That's the first header, and the first sentence of the first paragraph, and I'm confused.

Two different uses of "offline", I think. From my own understanding:

To "go offline" means for something to become inaccessible that was once accessible "online". ("Offline" is an adverb.)

Meanwhile, an "offline" thing is one which is usable even without ever being "online". ("Offline" is an adjective.)

So it becomes:

> "Knowledge That Never [Becomes Inaccessible]"

> "Node for [Accessible-Without-Connection] Media, Archives, and Data"

But definitely confusing to put them right next to each other like that. You'd think a copyeditor would flag it or something.

My guess is

>Knowledge That Never Goes Offline

Means

>Knowledge That Never becomes inaccessible to you

While the next offline means you can access it even if you don't have access to a wider network.

At least that's how I would read it.
