it's cheap, but not ideal

their system damage books with applying a brute force pression

in addition, little sized books are not digitizable

book scan operator must be able to turning pages by hand without needing of pick and pull every time the glass V structure

their way to command digital cameras is ridiculous; operator must click simultaneously on two cameras to pick image of page (another waste of time)

I've not seen it damage any books, nor have trouble with smal books. Have you experienced these things first hand?

This was previously known as http://bkrpr.org (book ripper), but they changed the name to liberator, in order not to scare book lovers.
