There's entirely too many areas that are safe from not just EMPs but also rated to withstand an indirect nuclear strike. Not sure if anyone is building an ark per say but with the digitizing efforts in the EU and the fact that much of its data is stored in nuke withstanding data centers I'd say we'd be fine even if the EMP would strike the entire world at the same time. Fairly confident that Google's data centers (for their digitizing efforts) are also EM shielded.
Now we just have to figure out what to do when the inevitable zombie outbreaks hits. That's the real problem. Got it on good authority that zombies prefer paper books (what, you think there'll be toilet paper after the zombie apocalypse?) and will react violently to anyone with a kindle.
