Do you have a pointer to that information (looking for tips that

Sorry about that last post. I have been having trouble
with my email and everything has been messed up.
Have you found https://diybookscanner.org/?
No -- but, thanks, I will have a look.
On their Forum
there are probably posted thousands of things about all
aspects of book scanning. If you search there you can get
answers to almost any question you might have.
A quick glance seems to suggest they do "non-destructive"
scanning. I've opted to treat most (95%?) of my titles
as "disposable" -- cut off the binding, feed pages through
scanner, bundle resulting TIFFs in a PDF container, recycle
scanned paper. Lather, rinse, repeat.
It seems like trying to preserve the book would greatly
complicate the effort (?) and time required (??). And, if
the goal is to be rid of the paper, then I don't see the
real advantage of trying to keep the book intact...
What do you do with YOUR books after scanning them?
Are you scanning with the goal of creating searchable
documents? Or, of getting rid of "paper"?
How many titles are you handling? Do YOU own them?
