I don't understand how you are planning for your client reading device to avoid storing books locally by accessing them from a server instead, but you don't want to run a server, and have all this work without network (WAN) access either.
And this has now confused me further:
Since you mentioned "powerbank", are you planning to run the server on a Raspberry Pi and take the server along with you into the field, running on a powerbank?
Sorry, I'm totally lost now.

Yes the idea is to have the server with me running on powerbank.
The devices connect to it using wifi, but I do not want (if possible) that the client devices (smartphone, tablet, PC) make copies of the files I'm reading.
From my point of view it has not much sense to worry about the hardware part if the software part does not permit me to access the library in the WIFI LAN keeping the reading page status aligned between devices.
In other words at the moment I'm less worried about the hardware requirements than the software ones and for such reason I've only asked about the software part of the "project". Sorry if it has created confusion.
