buying a scanner

I have had good luck with Mustek scanners. Between myself, and my friends, we own 9 of them with no problems.

Their web site is www.mustekdirect.com

Whichever brand you choose, you should look into a large bed scanner. An 11" * 17" bed should allow you to scan both sides of an open book at once.

I've used Canon scanners and they work well.

But don't neglect the software. You might want to invest in something better than the free software that will come with your scanner. It all depends on what you want to do with those academic books.
