Find book scanners at AU Library

AU Library has a number of book scanners which can give you a better scanning result than normal Xerox scanners. Both types of scanners have Optical Character Recognition (OCR) functions. You can either scan and send the files directly to your e-mail or save the files on your memory stick.

However, please note that according to copyright law you are only permitted to scan for personal use. You are not allowed to send the files to others or to upload them to Brightspace (AU LMS) or other platforms. You are also not permitted to scan sheet music. Violation of copyright law may result in legal consequences. Read more about copyright.
