I might oversetimate, I dont have all the boxes in front of me now to measure. I think I have around 4 boxes though, around 50x30x40cm each, plus some random heaps of books scatterred around…😬
If you can notice, this size of boxes is very inefficient. An A4 paper is around 30x21cm. If the boxes were slightly bigger, they could fit 4 stacks of A4-sized books. They way they are though only allows for ~2 heaps, leaving a lot of empty space (though they might arent strong enough to support a completely full box). It essentially increases the total used space ~1.5 times.
I even made my custom box once of “proper” size (to fit 4 stacks of A4 books).
Also, it’s not just a5 notebooks. About half of the notebooks are a4 and I have many books which I used to take notes from. I try to scan them too, the pages which have notes of mine at least.
I know, it’s a mess and while I’ve scanned possibly ¼-⅓ of the total mass, I still have a lot more and I create more as time passes.
I might either buy a scanner with autofeeding or find any place that can properly scan my stuff for cheap.
