Today's Webtip: DIY book scanner

an interesting resource for anyone who has been thinking about putting their library in their pocket.

Have you gotten hooked on e-books? Are you a bibliophile who shudders at the thought of repurchasing every book in your collection. Are you willing to do what it takes to turn your books into bits and bytes?

Then you probably need to take a look at www.diybookscanner.org

Daniel Reetz - "DIY Book Scanning" from adafruit industries on Vimeo.

It is an excellent resource for anyone who has been toying with the idea of getting their books digitized without destroying the actual book in the process. It's a bit of work, but for anyone who enjoys taking their books with them, it is well worth the time and effort.
