Archiving and Scanning Digitisation at Oxford Duplication Centre
Digitising Scrapbooks | Perfect for Corporate, Heritage and Consumer Clients
Oxford Duplication provides secure book scanning, preservation & book digitisation services for all volume. Converting books to TIFF, PDF, Word, JPEG and e-book formats.
Many scrapbook pages are mounted on black paper with glue or photo corners, and have notations under each photo about who they are and what they’re doing as well as other printed mementos layered over them. The best way to preserve your old scrapbooks is to turn them digital and then store the original in archival storage containers. We will work with you to scan your pages and give you our best recommendations for how to care for the original. To preserve the integrity of the original, we scan the whole page and give it to you as an image file. You can even use these scans to turn your scrapbook into a photo book!

Due to the nature of bound books, not all digitisation is straightforward. A service charge may therefore apply to more complex books. We will advise you before estimate approval.
