I think from the whole +weekend this is the project i'm most likely to get involved with: I for +one lug around about 20kg of old notebooks every time I move and i'd +love to get them digitized. I also made a lot of use of book scanners at +the Rotch Library back in the day, which had OCR, pdf generation, and +easy email features. I think every library should have a book scanning +station for patrons to make use of; i'm sure there are copyright +concerns with people scanning in whole books and posting them to the +net, but that shouldn't be an impediment to an important and useful +service. + +(photo from +`wired.com <http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2009/12/diy-book-scanner/>`__. + +.. |image0| image:: http://40.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lrryhan6Tw1qae4w7o1_1280.jpg |
