The type and sources of data that you have on the USB flash drive and how that data got onto the flash drive would be very helpful details to know for those able to offer up advice.

For example is the data just files copied onto the drive from a Mac or PC, or was an iTunes backup of one of your prior iPad placed onto the flash drive and you’re looking to restore it?

The files are both pdf books and mp4 videos copies onto the stick from iMac

Depends on what type of data you have... photos, videos and songs OK... all the rest you cant transfer directly to your ipad. In any case you have to buy an USB-C to USB-A adapter...
 
Another way is Mega ... they offer a free 50gig storage.

Just keep that stuff in the cloud, and download it to any device.
