We have seen a dramatic increase in demand for digital reproductions of books. The previous methods available for imaging delicate or old books were cumbersome and not conducive to the handling of fragile materials.

We have been using the COBRA this past year for scanning materials from our special Collections and University Archives. It has fully met our expectations for high-quality digital conversion of rare and unique items and allowed us to work on both in-house and collaborative community projects. It is easy to operate and allows us to work with many different sized books and documents with excellent results.

We looked for something in-between our flatbed scanners and our huge, expensive large format scanner, and the Book2net Spirit fit the bill concerning both features and price. We also wanted something with minimal power requirements that didn't require an Ethernet port. We also like how easy it is to use - there is no learning curve and people ar amazed at how easy it is to learn.
