“We looked for something in-between our flatbed scanners and our huge, expensive large format scanner, and the Book2net spirit fit the bill concerning both features and price. We also wanted something with minimal power requirements that didn’t require an Ethernet port,” said librarian Jennifer Emmanuel. “We also like how easy it is to use – there is no learning curve and people are amazed at how easy it is to learn.”

We are very pleased with the output. There has been a lot of great feedback from the users. Overall, the Book2net Kiosk is an excellent solution.

It is a pretty exciting piece of equipment that will move our reading room and services to our readers into a new dimension. It’s so simple that it would take only a couple of minutes to show a patron how to use it, but in my opinion, it was so intuitive that it might require only a few seconds!

Over the past 10 years, we have seen a dramatic increase in demand for digital reproductions of books. The previous methods available for imaging delicate or old books were cumbersome and not conductive to the handling of fragile materials.
