[Athen] Any ideas on a good Flatbed scanner?

[Joanna I. Davidson via athen-list]

Chris,
We do use some flatbed scanners for resource sharing/document delivery. Scanning books and other materials. Most of the time we use a few ScannX Book ScanCenter setups, although we do also sometimes use stand alone Epson Expression 13000XL Archival Scanner for some higher resolution or special size items. Larger books/materials we often use KIC BookEye overhead scanners.
The ScannX and Epson Expression scanners do scan reasonably fast. The ScannX system can scan to drive, cloud, or to email.

I think we are satisfied with these for the most part, but also will always keep other options/vendors in mind.

Folks

I don't know if anyone is using flatbed scanners these days for scanning books, but we are going to start looking around. Does anyone have a flatbed scanner that they like? Looking for one that scans at least 300 DPI and has a fast scan speed.

Thanks
