We use advanced imaging technology to capture high-quality digital copies of your old books, ensuring that all text, images, and other details are accurately preserved.

WHAT IS BOUND BOOK SCANNING?

Bound book scanning is a process of digitizing the contents of a book that is bound, typically with a hard cover. This process involves carefully scanning each page of the book and converting the images into a digital format, such as a PDF or ebook.

Bound book scanning can be done manually, using a flatbed scanner, or with specialized equipment designed specifically for the task. The resulting digital version of the book can be used for a variety of purposes, including archiving, preserving the book's content, or making it more widely available.

The digital copies are sharable in easy-to-read formats.

Bound book Scanning Best Methods

The scanning of bound books can be done in two ways:

Destructive Book Scanning and Non-Destructive Book Scanning.

The new bound book scanning method is Non Destructive book scanning. in this method, without removing the spine of the book, we scan the entire book while maintaining the original format. However, choosing the method for bound book scanning is your personal decision. We offer our book scanning service both ways -

Destructive Book Scanning

Destructive bound book scanning may sound scary. It simply means that, during the bound book scanning process, the spine of the book is carefully removed. The main reason people choose this option is because they can get high-quality scans of their books at a low price of $0.08 per page

Destructive book scanning is a process of digitizing the contents of a book in which the book is dismantled or disassembled in some way. This is typically done in order to more easily scan the individual pages of the book, as it may be difficult or impossible to scan a bound book without damaging it. There are several different methods of destructive book scanning, including:

Loosening the spine: This method involves carefully loosening the spine of the book so that the pages can be more easily separated and scanned.

Cutting the spine: This method involves cutting the spine of the book and removing the pages for scanning. This is typically done with books that have a glued spine and cannot be easily disassembled by other means.

Cutting the hinges: This method involves carefully cutting the hinges of the book, which are the areas where the spine of the book is attached to the cover. This allows the pages to be separated and scanned, while the cover remains intact.

It's important to note that destructive book scanning is generally considered a last resort, as it can cause permanent damage to the book. It is typically only used when it is not possible to scan the book in any other way.

Non Destructive Book Scanning

In some cases, clients come to us with older, out of print books that they are interested in re-publishing. In this situation, it is often important to the client that the print version of the book is returned in its original condition. We do offer non-destructive book scanning services. Our prices for non-destructive book scanning start as low as $0.15 per page.

Non-destructive book scanning, also known as bound book scanning, is a process of digitizing the contents of a book without causing any damage to the book. This is typically done using specialized equipment designed specifically for the task, such as a book scanner or a flatbed scanner with a document feeder. Non-destructive book scanning involves carefully scanning each page of the book and converting the images into a digital format, such as a PDF or ebook.

The resulting digital version of the book can be used for a variety of purposes, including archiving, preserving the book's content, or making it more widely available. Non-destructive book scanning is generally considered the preferred method for digitizing books, as it allows the original book to be preserved in its original form.

Taking on thousands of pages of Genealogy Records requiring delicate, one-by-one scanning, eRecordsUsa and their personnel performed with precision and thoroughness to create beautiful results for us! I am deeply indebted to eRecordsUsa for his help with this project, as are my clients. Geyer-Smith Family.

My wife authored a book published in 1999. The The book is out of print and there are still brisk sales of used copies so she decided to publish on Kindle. eRecordsUSA in Dublin California scanned a perfect copy of the book ready for publication, no flaws to fix we were on Amazon\'s page within two hours. I highly recommend eRecordsUSA. They do it right the first time.

eRecordsUsa recently scanned 4 valuable 9x12 highly classified lab notebooks for Cloud9. The quality of the scans were amazing considering that the notes were written by hand and drawn in pencil 8 to 10 years ago. It is much easier now to read the scanned documents then the originals. Special care was also taken to replace and dismantle the original bindings and stapled on papers with the lab notebooks returned to us in perfect condition. I recommend eRecordsUsa services for quality of work, fas...

As a member of the Sequoia Audubon Society of San Mateo County, we asked eRecords USA to scan old newsletters into PDF searchable files. They successfully scanned 2,853 pages representing 421 files. The newsletters were scanned in B&W at 400 dpi. Prior to beginning the project, eRecords USA provided us with a written estimate. They initially estimated the project to take 4-6 weeks but the project was completed in just 2 weeks. During my initial meeting with eRecords USA, Sharma took the time to ...

I cannot speak highly enough of the quality of service I received from eRecordsUSA . I had a bound volume of my grandfather\'s memoirs in handwritten Yiddish that had to be scanned. The pages were non-standard size and each page had been written in a different intensity of ink, so the pages had to be individually scanned.eRecordsUSA met with me in person, immediately understood my needs - and my concerns - and turned the project around in record time and on a highly professional level, exceedin...

I had three, thick books scanned by these folks and was impressed with the attentive customer service, the turn-around time, the quality and the price was extremely competitive! I had scanned three textbooks my father wrote and were out of print by the publisher and thought it would be nice to preserve his works electronically for other generations of food scientists to use. Highly recommend them for any of your scanning needs and definitely recommend them to anyone with scanning needs

Darius M, Santa Cruz, CA

I must commend the services of eRecordsUSA.com for the superior scanning job they did for me. My job was to scan 16 huge binders of photos and documents for a theater. This was an unusual scanning request which required a lot of individual attention to each item that was scanned, and the order of the items was important to be preserved. I was very satisfied with the job that was delivered and the turnaround of the job. Not only was the final scanning of excellent quality, but the return...

Our experience with eRecordsUSA was an absolute pleasure. They were very professional in their treatment of our family historical journals. Prior to scanning, they went the extra mile in showing us their processes and provided samples for our review. They worked with us through iterations in resolution requirements and treatment of the historical documents. They delivered on time within the quality standards that we set. We are very pleased with the results and look forward to engaging with...
