Ask HN: Digitize a Library?

1•ggeorgovassilis•7mo ago
My father, who was an homme des lettres, recently passed away, leaving us his huge collection of books. I'd like to make digital copies, but running them through a flatbed scanner would take too long. Are there faster ways? Eg. recording a video of flipping through the book's pages with a software extracting the individual pages from the book? OCR would be nice to have but not necessary. TIA!

I am also looking for a similar solution, but for various documents of different sizes and types.

Ideally it would also make it easy to give names for folders and subfolders.

Solutions depend on the amount of books you have to scan.

- For "disposable" books, cut the spine and haul the paper through a sheet-feeding scanner; - For non-disposable books, photograph each page;

Which is near impossible to do for a serious collection: scanning 10 books a day, every day, is only about 3500 books.

There are companies that will do the work for you, including meta data, but it will cost a small fortune.

Perhaps best to think about why you want to make copies.

Might consider something like a CZUR https://shop.czur.com/
