Shelley, It sounds like you prefer to scan hardbacks more than paperbacks...is this just a personal preference, or do you know if hardbacks are in general more poppular to scan? I have read that the folks who have a page feeder feature on their scanner will most times de-spine paperbacks and then send them through that way. I imagine they wouldn't de-spine hardback books unless they were personal copies that they didn't want to save for a 'sighted' library. The six books I have are all from the library...so easy does it for them!
