Do any of you have experience of the commercial scanning and OCR of
old books? Costs, reliability, recommended suppliers, etc?
As series of books in which I'm interested fall out of copyright on
1st January, and I'd like to have them digitised and available as
ebooks. I don't think I'd have the time to scan them, page by page,
but I would be willing to organise someone else doing so, to proof
read and upload to Wikisource.
Which brings me to my next point: is there a good tutorial for
uploading works to Wikisource? Or possibly some training available?
