Mr. <[log in to unmask]> To: Maps, Air Photo, GIS Forum - Map Librarianship <[log in to unmask]> 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.

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.
