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

It is a rare expensive book that I wish other can have access to. I don't want to break the spine of the book as I am still using it for my studies, can I not just scan each page of the book using my phone, then convert them into pdfs and merge? Is that a bad idea?

It will make for a very uncomfortable to read PDF.
