The Current Situation
Bound book scanning with overhead manual scanners is a high labor cost process, and challenging to achieve consistent high quality images for viewing, printing and OCRing. The high cost to produce results in high prices which constrains the market for book digitization.Today, more university and national level libraries/archives are seeking to digitize books because of the global trend to make more and more information available electronically.
