Click the "Go" button to open the viewer. If the work has a "Digital Content: Go" button under the "I want this" tab in the catalogue, the scan is available.

Generally, a Google Books scan is the worst quality scan available, find alternatives if possible.īelow is the same image from a Google Books scan and from an Internet Archive scan (no further processing on either image has been done): Google Books scans are often missing images, embed images as almost-useless thumbnail-quality images, have torn or folded pages, or can include the hands or fingers of the scanner operator blocking the page. If the Internet Archive has imported this scan, the PDF is the same (in which case, the Internet Archive allows you to access the page images directly, see above). Do not screenshot from the webpage, the original images are usually about 3000 × 5000px and are scaled down and re-compressed when shown in the web viewer. Some books can be downloaded directly from Google Books as PDF files (hover over "Ebook - Free" button and then choose "Download: PDF"), and then you can extract images from there. The Google Books web viewer doesn't make it easy to access page images directly. There is a "Data API", which can be used too, but this requires a free account to acquire the API keys. These images are identical to those obtained as above. You can also download the page-by-page PDFs and extract the image that way (again, take care to only save losslessly).

Ensure size is a very large number (say, 10000).

This is shown in the Hathi web viewer in the bottom right corner as #N / TOTAL. If the quality is not satisfactory and there is no other source, then extract it from the PDF/DjVu and tag the file with to the page number you want.

It is tempting to take images you need directly out of PDF or DjVu files, but some PDF and DjVu documents are created with lossy compression that is optimised for text, not images, so it is not always the right way to go. The huge loss in quality is evident as blurring, blocking and loss of most detail.
