I have done what I can to reduce my book holdings. When I first moved here I had more than 4,000 books. I have around 2,000 today. Many are marked up with colors and with notes in the margins. I would love to find a book scanner that can convert my books to searchable PDFs, to Word documents or to one of the Kindle formats.

I have looked at the CZUR scanners (cost roughly $500). They are made in communist China and appear to send the scanned images back to Communist China.

I would like to scan one or two books per week.

Do any of you have experience with any of the higher quality book scanners?
