I am shrini, from Chennai, India.

We are planning to digitize a old library here which has around 100000
public domain books.

To preserve them, we are looking for good high end scanners.

I got the info about http://mini.atiz.com/

Is there any other good scanner for such huge work?

Please share your thoughts on this.

Thanks a lot.

Hi,

I don't know much about scanners and it is really dependant on your budget.
I heard that self-build scanners are getting up to par with professional
scanners nowadays. Take a look at:

Cheers,
