I am scanning a 900-something-page book for my fall Old Testament class. On the syllabus, the professor lists the reading assignments as pp. 9-12 (7 pp). I asked him why he did this; and he said that the amount of text on each page is equal to two pages. Does this mean that I am scanning 1,900 pages?

Thank God for Prednisone, Sulfasalazine, and Vicodin! The book weighs four pounds!

Wow, is the text really small or is the book just enormous?

I've never had a prof classify my reading as double! I love reading but I bet that would scare a lot of people.

the book

The book is a huge book, like the size of an academic journal. The text is also small. And these books do scare people.

Re: the book

Wow Sarah, that's a lot indeed. Last year, I had a 800-page book that was also very large. When will you be needing the book? I ended up scanning that 800-page book while we were already using it in class, but I can tell this is definitely not ideal.

Re: the book

Fortunately, class doesn't start for about five weeks. That's one reason I'm getting started with my scanning so early.
