Book Scanning Services

Thanks to our advanced book scanning service, historical books can now be made available to a world wide audience whilst at the same time eliminating any further degradation of such valuable documents.

We offer true-to-original archiving at resolutions up to 800dpi with further image processing options such as optical character recognition (OCR) giving a full word search facility throughout the document.

What is involved?

A with all of our services, we arrange to collect your books or bound documents from your offices before transporting them to our scanning facility in Southampton. Then, using the latest in book scanning technology they will be scanned using a self levelling cradle thereby eliminating unnecessary wear and tear on delicate bindings.

What Does It Cost?

The cost of scanning a book can vary quite considerably and is dependant on a number of factors. Consideration is given to the size and age of a book, whether a bi-tonal, grey scale or colour scan is required and at what resolution you require the images to be.
