<p class="MsoNormal">Are any of you using (or do your libraries have) face-up scanners or stand-alone scanners? I have a Canon-DR 9080C for alternate format production, but am looking for alternatives to traditional flat-bed scanning for Library books, print reserves, etc. (those times when it’s not practical to take the binding off the book). It’s not practical or efficient to use a traditional flat-bed scanner (not to mention the quality of flat-bed scanning – flipping the book around, bending the spine, the curvature near the binding, etc). </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">Wondering if face-up scanners or stand-alone scanners would meet this need, if the speed and quality of the scan is acceptable?</p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">
Any help or guidance you may have would be appreciated! Makes/models and prices would also be welcomed!</p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">Thanks!</p><p class="MsoNormal">Cassandra Tex</p><p class="MsoNormal">
