At Data Solutions Group, we offer expert book scanning services for organisations across the UK. Our dedicated Book Scanning Team is equipped to scan all types of bound volumes, including:

With over 25 years of experience in document digitisation, we ensure that your valuable content is preserved, protected, and made accessible for future use.

Bound Book Scanning Without Damage

We understand the importance of maintaining the integrity of your original documents. That’s why we offer both:

  • Non-destructive scanning – preserve the spine and binding

  • Spine-split scanning – for enhanced image quality where preservation is not required

Our high-resolution equipment can scan bound books up to A3 in size, capturing every detail with clarity and accuracy.

Why Digitise Your Book Archive?

Many organisations store shelves of books and journals containing vital information that is:

  • Difficult to locate or access

  • Fading or deteriorating with age

  • Irreplaceable if lost or damaged

By digitising your book collection, you gain:

✅ Improved accessibility – find what you need instantly
✅ Enhanced preservation – protect original materials from wear and tear
✅ Disaster recovery readiness – reduce the risk of data loss
✅ Compliance support – meet data protection and industry standards

OCR for Enhanced Searchability

Where book condition allows, we apply OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to create fully searchable PDF files. This enables you to locate specific words, names, numbers, or references instantly — saving time and increasing productivity.

Clients frequently report that the quality and legibility of our scanned books often surpasses that of the original materials.

Trusted, Secure & Confidential

As an ISO 9001:2015 certified and ICO-registered provider, we follow strict protocols for data security, confidentiality, and quality control throughout the scanning process.
