How to upload books and where to? (lemmy.org)

Hey, I have this book in paper and would like to scan its pages to share on something like z-library for others to access.

So I wanted to ask what is the best way to go about scanning all the pages of the book? Something like those images to pdf scanners on your phone or something else?

Also where should I upload it to? Is Z-library okay? And is it safe to upload it? Could it be traceable back to me and potentially getting me in trouble?

Thanks in advance

Would argue the opposite. If no one has shared it yet and it's not rare / valuable, saw it, use a double sided auto feed scanner, and share it.

Agree it's not too easy to do as a one off, but once you get the hang of it maybe more will come. I often have a hard time finding digital books so am in favor of more of this
