Has anyone written out a step-by-step process for unbinding and scanning books? Or rather - recommended the most effective way of doing this?

I have an old flatbed scanner at home (laborious option) and access to a MFD (multifunctional device) at work that will scan in an 'automated' way, but tends to jam up (faster but could tear up the pages). Also, I have OCR software at home - but not at the office. Any suggestions as to how to begin without (1) driving myself insane or (2) chewing up my books?

Unfortunately I have a fondness for books that will probably never make it into e-book format, so jailtime with icebreaker is starting to look increasingly attractive...
