Book Scanning

The Book Scanner is a solution to sharing delicate, rare or historical books with the public. Libraries, historical societies and personal collectors will benefit from digitizing these valuable assets to a format that is accessible and available to many without damaging the original artifact.

Newspapers - the book scanner is the perfect tool for scanning newspapers as well. Yellowed, brittle newsprint is difficult to read and decomposes quickly. Digital images can be stored indefinitely, are searchable, and can be reprinted at any time.

Book Scanning Services

Preparation – Our team will carefully prepare the book, pamphlet or newspaper for scanning. You can be confident that every side of every page will be delicately and properly prepared and scanned.

Scanning – Our book scanner uses digital cameras to capture an image of each page. Books are propped open in the V-cradle, eliminating the curve or wavy text effect of traditional flat bed scanners. Our scanning software creates clean, sharp images of each document and you can even add optical character recognition (OCR).

Convert to Film – The full array of services from Lakeshore Document Services means you have many options: convert your scanned book to film or microfiche, or create a digital image.
