I had the idea to build something like this a while
ago. In theory *my design* would work acceptably, a
few missed pages here and there. But for the amount of
time you're saving, I think it would be a non issue.
I'll look into it further. I might need some help with
the electronics, albeit very simple (like me ;).

While following a discussion on /. I came across
this interesting book scanner:
http://www.kirtas-tech.com/
Only 1200 pages/hour but it looks like you can
load it up and let it scan a whole batch. Which
is just as well as I suspect it is not that cheap!
If anyone knows how much one of these systems is,
I'd really
appreciate knowing, as I know a library that might
be interested in
one.
