I do a lot of historical research involving interviews and visits to
Museums and other resource centers. This little scanner fits into my
laptop bag and can be carried along to copy research material on site.
Its design allows you to place it on top of the thing to be copied and
is much safer on old and rare documents. HP no longer makes them-Dumb move!

I've used numerous scanners in the past. From the traditional "insert document, close lid, pray that the page didn't move" kind to the hand held type. All had their drawbacks.
This scanner with the see through positioning rocks. I now know immediately if I need to reposition the paper just be seeing how it looks through the glass.
Additionally, I have scanned large (36" x 36") plans and used the included software to create a single document. I was completely stunned when I couldn't identify where in the resulting document the software overlaid the individual scanned images. Nice.
The included OCR software works great, I've copied whole pages from books with 100% accuracy.
The only downside is that it's a little slow. It takes about 20 seconds to grab the first image, and maybe 15 seconds thereafter. But then again, I don't sit around and scan all day.
Don't bother with the traditional scanners requiring a lid. Get this.

We bought a used one since we cold find a new one anymore. It came as advertised and it is still working well long time after we bought it.
