The Procedure Of Yearbook Scanning

By Marie Ward


A yearbook is one of the most important documents that a student takes away after completing school. It contains all of the staff and students of the school. As years go by, one is still able to remember their classmates and the school in general. When these yearbooks are made, there is usually one original and several copies are made. Below are some of the processes of yearbook scanning.

The first step is to choose the kind of scanner that will be best for the job and of course one that you can afford. There are mainly two main types of scanners; the flatbed scanner and the sheet feed scanner. The flatbed scanner is more affordable and can scan anything including books. For a sheet feed scanner, you can only scan individual pages.

Every scanner is different. Most people go for the flatbed scanner because you only have to flip through the pages and press them on to the screen for the content to be copied. With the feed sheet, however, you will need to dismantle the book. As the name suggests, you can only feed this copier a page at a time for the best results.

After choosing the copier you may proceed. If you have chosen the feed sheet, you will need to work on removing the book from the cover. There is either hardcover or paperback and both can be removed with ease. With the hardcover, you need a utility knife to remove the cover and a damp sponge to separate the pages.

Even after separating the book and remaining with pages, you need to separate it further into smaller groups of about 20 pages. Ensure that this is done systematically to avoid any kind of confusion. Proceed to peel off any remaining glue from the pages to avoid causing any kind of damage to the scanner. Some glue may get on the lens and it is best to wipe with a damp cloth.

You will need the paper pot software. Since you are storing the scanned pages on your computer, you will need for them to be placed systematically. This software and any other of the same nature are precisely for this purpose. They store the document using formats such as PDF, TIFF, among many others. PDF is often recommended as it is hardly altered especially by accident.

Scan all of the pages. Including the blank ones. Do not neglect to do so simply because they are blank. But in the event that they are left out in the scanning, indicate on the previous pages that they are missing to avoid confusion while going through the book. If skipped, check to see the pages are in order to avoid shady work.

The assumption here is that you are using a feed sheet scanner. It is advisable to feed it one page at a time. Doing more than this may wear out the roller parts of the machinery. This may be expensive to fix and therefore, one at a time is best.
