I hope I post this in correct part of the forum, but feels as the best place. I have few books in library, that are not online, however I don't know what to do with it after taking photos of pages. I would appreciate if there was someone to whom I could send the photos to be converted and possibly adapted into pdf files and uploading them.
Anyone willing to help, please?

If you have a scanner and can get the books flush n flat, most have the option to convert to PDF in real time while scanning. That'll make your life so much easier, provided your scanner isn't anal.

In that case I think I'm ready to start... in few days, a lot of shifts at work now.
Thanks a lot, friends, for your help.

If you're using your phone, the app Microsoft Lens will help you to scan and turn it into a PDF
Just wanted to say thanks for this tip. I was able to use this to do the OCR for a book that I scanned with CamScanner. Amazing scanner options, but the OCR process doesn't seem to work as advertised in the app and the app seems to really have a bad time with bigger files. PDF24 worked great for optimizing too. Another option that just didn't work in CamScanner. It said my file was optimized enough. lol.
