Or if you have the time, reading the text aloud into your phone and let the phone convert to text. A few heavy boxes can't be much more than 5,000 pages, or about 500 - 1,000 hours of slowly reading it to your phone (assuming each page is text dense.) If it were me, I'd try reading a few pages into my phone and see how it goes and multiply it out to see how long it would take.

My HP flatbed scanner translates printed text to a MS WORD document, but I doubt it would do handwriting.
