Here is information on a scanner that is used by our digitization team
for library resources.  This is the scanner they use for bound
materials, which I believe can accommodate large size bound materials.

My library is interested in purchasing a scanner that can deal with
large items such as large bound tax books and maps.

I am told that we will not buy an Apple product-I am assuming because
everything else in the builing is PC.

Do any of you have recommendations?

Is it possible to find something that can do both bound and flat items?

I appreciate any input.
